Well if you didn't know any better, and didn't think to even pop into the parts department at your local dealership...
Mad though, isn't it

Exactly. He's making a fair old margin on those grilles, so as long as one of us doesn't buy one from him then let him get on with it IMHO. No harm to us, and its the buyers problem if they find out that the cost is so inflated after they've shelled out for one of these overpriced grilles

his reply was
The fact that you drive a polo says a lot about you really... bit of a birds car don?t you think lil miss dj!!!
eBay was invented to make money, so sounding off to your cyber mates will do no harm, there will always be a mug with more money than sense.
Anyway, it was nice talking to you, thanks for the forum link by the way; my sister has a polo GTI so the info will be useful. Tata!
