You can paid and pay via PayPal then have the stuff shipped. Did a boot inetrior, smaller yes, from the East Coast in USA, cost was U$65 so seats will be a bit more.....but still possible

Yip, i worked out the biege ///M seats on the 1st page to be R10800(Rand vs Euro), exclude shipping and all other costs. Would you know more or less how much it would cost to get it landed in S.A??

Just a friendly warning about Ebay Germany!
Lots of "Eastern European Crooks" advertising there and never deliver the goods.
I bought a set of seats as well, luckily paid by PayPal and awaited delievery to my shipping agent in Munich.
Four weeks later still nothing! It took about 5 month to get my money back from PayPal

So be aware.... bad things could happen to you!

true, this is why you should always check out a sellers feedback rating, for us international buyers he should have at least 50 successfull int sales, and if anybody has ever complained about not receiving goods, stay away..

while on this subject, just fyi for those that buy a lot of spares privately from international sites :
sars seems to have woken up to the fact that this market is booming, and want their share.. make SURE that your seller understands that all declarations made on the parcels are 100% correct.. i have had unending hassles with wrong values declared recently on two shipments of mine, (im talking 100$ declared, when value was actually 103$, that kind of nonsense)
and everytime i had to pay the non conformance fine.. bastards.

Howsit gents, need some help....

Well im abit of in a predicament, i have been wanting the E36 M3 vader seats for awhile now, i have found a set, thing is, its black, leather in fair/ not so good condition but that doesnt matter coz i have to cover them anyway (coz my interior is white) the structure of the seats are still solid and all the electrics work. The guy is selling them for R4K.

My question is, are they worth the price??? Shud i or shudnt i?

Sorry i dont have a pic so trust me on my description.

Sorry, didn't answer your question :) Sounds expensive but for what its worth in the future, I would buy it. Look at it this way, if you not happy with it, you can always sell it to recover costs or more.... such is hens teeth.
