I hope Mike gets his fraud sorted
Just another quicky to say mine arrived today, very impressed. No problems money wise, so I think the panic was unjust in this instance. Hope you get to the bottom of it and sorted though.

Cheers all

Mike - any update on what happened given that every one else has had no issues - did you speak with PayPal?

my shin etsu lube also arrived a few days ago. Strangely, my ITunes account was locked recently...not sure if this is related.....

Just been through my accounts, nothing odd to report.

I am sat here scratching my head trying to figure out why people who have paid for goods via PayPal are putting 2 & 2 together & getting 5.

I go back to what I said a few days ago - if customer card details held by PayPal had been hacked in to, leaked, etc, it would be all over the news and there would be more than one of us saying their account had been raided.

According to this thread Boot lid spoiler there are a shit load of us, including myself who have purchased a spolier from Taiwan - all from ebay & all using Paypal.

Do we all go in to panic mode and cancel our cards just in case or do we be realistic and just accept that this is an isolated case of fraud?

And to qoute AntiguaBill 'No problems money wise, so I think the panic was unjust in this instance'

definitely sounds like an isolated case to me, I am far from being in a panic.

Hope your problem is sorted soon Mike.

Is it possible to abuse grease? I've not got much on tonight might have a good sniff.

I have no idea but when I asked the lad behind the counter said that anything that contains solvents they have to ask for ID if they think you look under 21...so I took it as a compliment seeing as I'm 10yrs beyond that...I also pointed out that silicone grease doesn't contain solvents, hence my reason for buying it

Arrived yesterday without any problems. all greased up today. thanks for the tip BM

Whilst greasing I noticed that the seal next to the n/s door pillar has a cylindrical piece of rubber fixed into the gap in the seal (its about 2" long and 1/2" diameter.. Not so on the o/s. anyone know if this should be there ? and does it do anything.
