Hey!

Like the title says, my gripe is with those ebay sellers that sell one thing & send another.

I was stoked when my new steering wheel arrived at my door this morning. Sure, the packaging was a little rough (i.e.: Steering wheel in it's original box, a big white sheet of paper with my name & addy covering the front of it & mountains of clear packing tape wrapped all around it) but the box seemed in good knick still so I was happy.

It wasn't untill I was back inside & I'd cut half of the tape off that I realised that it wasn't the steering wheel I'd ordered, which was this one... Instead, they sent me this one!

Anyway, I've shot an email off to them & am waiting to hear what they have to say. I know they'll exchange it but now it means I'm going to have to wait ages for it to get there & back again sad.gif

P.S.: For what it's worth, the one I did get looks pretty well made; stitching is good, leather looks quality & the tiller feels overall nice & solid fing02.gif

 

tiller? i hate it when i get shipped the wrong thing. happens to me occasionally when i order pc parts. rather annoying.

 

^ Tiller is just another word for steering wheel... Sorry about that.

 

Get them to replace it mate, I like the 1st wheel better fing02.gif

 

^ Yeah, I'll definitely be doing that. I never considered keeping this one but the fact that the quality is good bodes well for the other one when I get it.

OT: To add salt to injury, I just got off the phone with "Tempe Tyres" as I was wanting to order my rims... Sure enough they're sold out of the ones I want until late February to early March & as far as I know they're the only place that sells them mad.gif

 

I actually like the steering wheel that you have recieved better than the momo look-alike because of the very reason that it isn't a momo tongue.gif

I also like the design much better than the fake momo that looks identicall to many other steering wheels.

 

i actually like the one they gave you more than the one you ordered...

and... tiller? haha. just like "buggery". boy, you aussies sure are crazy. haha

Mate, the one they sent me is also a MOMO knockoff...

"MOMO"


"FAUX-MO"



Anyway, I prefer the look of the one I'd ordered as i think I would maybe tire of this one one day... The "Race" design is more timeless, I reckon.

 

when i see people putting different wheel in their car...i always think what about the safety? airbag...?
