Thanks in advance.

Just make sure you pay with a credit card. You can dispute the charge later if anything goes wrong.

Congrats. For U$2000 I would have bought a spare interior too.

If you're planning on installing them in your car and you don't currently have comfort seats, check out ledbettm's post on what he went through...

Nick, as a guy who essentially just bought his (7th) new BMW by way of eBay, (see sig below) I would say that everything looks in order. The seller has a good record of genuine BMW parts sales and no bad feedback. Further, you got a complete set, including the door panels (which surprised me), so it would seem that all is proper. And the price seems MOST reasonable.

Now, you just have to figure out the installation and we see that Rudy has already offered a link to that, so I think you should relax and worry about crating and shipping charges!

BTW, I just bought a new BMW motorcycle helmet through UK eBay; they aren't marketed here, and I had no plans to go back over in the near future and my old one was shot. Though I laughingly refer to it as ePrey, I have done VERY well by it over the past several years (XcedXpec is my name there).

Enjoy them.

Cheers,

Ray Hull

Ray,

You have calm me with your ebay experience.
I found the seller's internet site in Germany. I think, will be OK.
I 've seen his feedback on ebay, but as a buyer. He has been sheller only twice, i think.

Thanks for you interest about my troubles.

True Nick, but he is dealing genuine parts, though he hasn't sold much. I do 98% buying, and sell only very rarely; it's the feedback and quality of the merchandise that counts. Relax! I still think shipping is going to be the hardest part!

Cheers,
Ray
