yes also i have sent them the paypal payment id code several times and told them 3 times over the phone im in a dispute with them now and will be claiming the money back through paypal but it takes a while
I have also had problems with these lot, they always tried making excuses!
i have had smoked jewels from them ages ago and they were fine delevered in 2 days and i was happy with the service.
Al though i also ordered smoked headlights a while a ago and they took ages to come. when i rang they said they only had left ones in stock....
How does that work they come as a pair lol i had to wait two weeks but got them at last and they were fine....

That sort of thing really puts you off buying online... seems like its just unlucky... as long as your getting your money back then i supose thats the main thing

Sorry to hear about that mate, it's odd becasue I bought the same lights off them about 2 weeks ago and everything went fine.
Hope you get it sorted.

GBK suck, sorry but I never hear anything good apart from the rear smoked lights. Which take a while to arrive aswell I have to add. They sold me a set of illegal lights and then didnt want to know. Sold a couple of people I know dodgy smoked lights then when the people sent them back they denied receiving them. Should be reported to ebay.

a lot of people have trouble with them, i think i waited for them to give me an invoice and then payed for it but thats because i bought the front and rear lights at the same time
ask them to contcat paypal

For all the Good eBay has brought the Bad is always not far behind and eBay has alot to answer for when it comes to the amount of honet people like yourself (you are honets right? lol) getting ripped off with sometimes no comeback at all.
Sorry to hear you have been unlucky, hope you either get your bits or get your money back.

Had a problem with them too.. Ordered some arches and after 3 weeks they still hadn't come phoned up 3 times.. Had a right go.. they promised they would send it and i would recieve it the next working day. However, Never came so i phoned again and i demanded a discount or some sort of compensation for waiting over a month and they gave me 50% off the order and promised it for that following day.. Still never arrived and so i ended up getting them for free plus my P&P costs refunded.. However, still not great having to wait for over 5 weeks in total since date of order. :n:
