Default Possibly one to look out for

270456522136 This may be one to avoid on E-Bay! Thinly disguised as someone already discussed on here and if I am wrong I apolagise.

It is GTS.

I got the suspension bushes, and the return address was for GTS.

The bushes are spot on, but did take a week or so to be sent out

Ash, I've just popped down to the garage and had a look.
I can't actually tell what material they are, because I have already pushed the bushes and tubes into the wishbones.
They look very nice and bright, but they could be either. He did advertise them as SS, so I am assuming they are.

They have been cut nice and straight with a little chamfer on both ends of the tubes.

The link I got them from was: http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/ws/eBayISAPI.d...m=270442735399

I paid on 16th August and left the feedback on 25th, so as I stated in the earlier post took just over a week.

I know GTS have got a bad reputation, but the bushes were a good price, and he came up with the goods so I'm pleased enough with them. I didn't know it was GTS till the box arrived though. To be fair, even if I knew it was I would have gone for them, because it's fairly easy to get your money back with ebay

Sean
