has anyone had any bad experiences with buying stuff over the net with paypal?

i just tried to buy new rims from america and i have more than enough money on my card but it declined my card and wouldnt give a reason.. im pretty pissed off because i think these are the only rims i have seen in ages that i actually like..

any feedback would be welcome and move the topic if needed i had no idea where to put it and it related to rims.

cheers guys,

Alex

Limit on single transactions from your bank ?

Isnt there a way to put money into your paypal account, so its there and ready?

Try doing that, either in a single movement, or multiple s ?

Or hit up the bank.

Did you get a two digit number shown up when it declined? they act as a code, like EFTPOS machines do.

here is the rims i want.. if anyone knows where i can get them in oz i would happily buy them.

i have spent over 2K in one transaction at harvey norman before and no worries.. this was only going to be $830..

so im a bit confused.

again if anyone knows where i can get these in oz it would be a lot easier. cheers.

I can only thing of two things...

1. As others have suggested - daily transaction limit from bank.

2. Have you confirmed your Paypal account yet? With Credits you do not have to do this - whereas bankcards you do.

I have used Paypal on many transaction - all went well plus there's free insurance up to $20K so that's peace of mind for you too.

I can't add my bank account to my PayPal account, and here is why!

This is the third time I have added my bank account to a PayPal account. First two times I deleted my account because I decided not to have one, as they are an absolute scam if you sell a few things on eBay. I decided to get PayPal again, as it is now the standard for making any transaction on eBay. I couldn't add my bank account this time, since their policy is not to allow it to be added for a third time, as it might be shifty.

I gave them a call to discuss my options. My only option is to get a new bank account. I will definitely not be doing that anytime soon! So now I have money sitting in there that I can't get across to my bank account, and since eBay has made it the standard for transactions then it looks like I am crippled when using eBay.

It's a stupid system if you ask me.

    • 310mm rotors will be avilable from Australia, Japan, and probably a few other places. Nothing for the front can be put on the back.
    • The filter only filters down to a specific size. Add to that, the filter is AFTER the pump. So it means everything starts breaking your pump even if its being filtered out.
    • Just like in being 14mm too small (296mm) makes it not fit, being 14mm too big (324mm) it also won't fit. You want to find the correct rotor.
    • @GTSBoy Ok so that was the shops problem...they showed R33 rotors on R34 page and i did not know 296 do not fit(and are for R33) Yes i bought "kit" with rotors and pads. Pads are ok(i have GTT calipers front and rear). They have some 324mm but no 310mm. So i dont know if they would fit. I have 17inch LMGT4s So another question. Can i fit those in the rear or they are just "too" big for that?
    • I started removing the tank a while back with the intent to give it a proper clean. Got to a bolt that I couldn't undo completely due to a diff being in the way, so just said f**k it and siphoned the gluggy old fuel out and called it a day. Looking it the tank it looks less corroded than the one in the pics for that billet hanger from Frenchy's anyway. Isn't it the fuel filters job to worry about this stuff? I scraped off most the crusty shit of the hanger but will give it another go before reinstall coz maybe the fuel and return pipes are also full of gunk
