I was really about to spend some mulah on a central armrest for my mk3, looked on ebay found a seller he asked for 25squid which I thought was quite dear, as usual I looked at his feedback n noticed he had sold quite a few of these 'rare' armerests looked into his buying more;n he was purchasing generic armrests from another ebayer located in germany! he buys them for around 7squid and then relists them for 25! puh!

To be honest though,that's business.
If you go shopping later rember the supermarket bought all that stuff cheaper.

For many vw part's in germany try these places

Yeah vtrue, but I go on ebay mainly to see what bargains can be had but I suppose it is an easy way to make some dosh,I just dislike the fact that people are not true to things but I guess thats life and another ramble is that we already pay so much on top than other eu countries.In our governments arrogance of 'splendid isolation' we still don't benifit from all the EU conformities as I think we are too 'proud' and with this in someways constricts us. Being hypercritical of myself though I must say I do like the UK being the UK and not 'Europe' with the euro, no borders and so on, but still a bit of a pain in the bum, esp if u wanna treat your dub to a lil sumthin :wink:
