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.

    • Pretty sure it is a common fault. I believe this is the only part you need, but don't quote me as I don't have a V36.  I also believe it is a bit of a pain to change and the device needs to be encoded to the car once it is replaced, so may need someone with the right tools. Buy Genuine Nissan 48700JF00D (48700-JF00D) Lock Set-Steering. Prices, fast shipping, photos, weight - Amayama
    • Pads for R32 GTS-t, R32 GT-R non V-Spec (Sumitomo), R33 GTS-t and R34 GT-t are all interchangeable. R34 GT uses a 2x piston caliper, hence it didn't fit.
    • Checked with amayama and nope, the full S2 manual set is not available anymore. Unsurprising, but still disappointing as the ? on availability gave a glimmer of hope.
    • I've heard the Tomei USA head gaskets are decent if you want to o-ring the heads but otherwise not recommended.
    • The 296mm rotors are the R33 turbo brakes. The 310mm rotors are the R34 turbo brakes. The calipers are nearly the same, but not. They're the same caliper but the R34 caliper has longer legs so that it sits out far enough to go over the rotor. The pads are the same for both. When you say, "I bough tsome EBC"....did you just mean pads? Or rotors? 310mm rotors fit under 17" wheels. There may be some wheels without enough clearance though. I can't fit my fingers between the barrel of my wheel and the "corners" of my R34 calipers, but there is plenty of room behind the spokes. This is on Enkei RPF1. You can fit 324mm rotors inside a 17" wheel, but I'd be willing to bet that it would be close to impossible with the Nissan/Sumitomo caliper (using an adapter, of course), because the Sumitomo caliper is fatter than the Brembo caliper that is supposed to go on the 324mm rotors.
