I see you worry about the listing fee, however there is a larger fee you are missing, the final value fee!
Chances are he will not respond or bother, but that should be more than £13!
Just do the open dispute, relist it, follow obviously the best's advice0 -
What seats are in it and what colour is the carpet?
Why, do you want to buy it?
Why do some people refuse to stick to the issues that are asked about, rather than nit picking.......
Rant over!Baldrick, does it have to be this way? Our valued friendship ending with me cutting you up into strips and telling the prince that you walked over a very sharp cattle grid in an extremely heavy hat?0 -

So, how have i never seen that before?! And how do the general public see the classified ads on Ebay... am i being thick lol? Have just looked and couldnt find anything on main ebay page......And how does someone search through them... ie if they put "peugeot 205" into the Main search on ebay home page, would the classified ad then come up too? Sorry

In the motors section, yes the classifieds do come up in the main search, and from the last I looked, it seems there are more Classifieds than BIN/Auction - it seems to be the de-facto way to list a motor these days.
It's only really motors and a few other high-value categories that use this function though.
There is no transaction on ebay, and no feedback is left either way. It is just like listing a car for sale on Pistonheads or AutoTrader, you pay a single fee to list and then wait for the calls and emails to come in.<--- Nothing to see here - move along --->0 -

Rant over!
Because, some people know a lot about subjects.
Your car looks like it has half leather seats with red piping.
The special edition was usually on a G plate with full leather and a grey carpet.
If it is in good condition, is it advertised on drivers?0 -

Never underestimate the geekiness of a petrolhead!!!
If it is the same car that I have just found (H852), then the aftermarket bits will detract from the value. There is a much bigger demand (and therefore price) for straight and standard 205 GTi's than those that have been modified.
Perhaps the OP should have thrown a can of Red Bull at the buyer as he left?! </ph><--- Nothing to see here - move along --->0 -
AND it has the wrong rear lights

Ah - are these in the picture the right ones then, Keith? Goodo... that solves everything then :cool:
To all those who have been helpful (so, thats everyone apart from my pal Keith), thanks very much! Will probably pop a classified onto Ebay as it sounds like that is the way to go Actually Keith, no, i apologise - you HAVE been helpful.... in showing how my OH is not ACTUALLY the most pompous, know-it-all "car" person i have ever met!
Cheers Lads
Will now take my little female self off and look at something which interests me... such as... um... well, anything apart from cars!!! :ABaldrick, does it have to be this way?

Surely, I've been helpful.
A better description selling the correct car, won't waste your time or the time of a buyer who is looking for a limited edition.0
