I emailed the guy at first mainly because he had the wood inserts on the door cards. I offered him 40 quid for the lot because it hadnt had a single bid in auction.
He turns round to be and said, "I'd rather burn them than let them go for pennies. 15 people were watching that auction. A set of crappier seats went for 185 quid the other day."
2 things I found strange were, 15 people were watching yet not one bid on the set. Second, I never found any cloth seats go for more than pennies on ebay.
I sold my W202 dark blue estate cloth interior in excellent condtition on ebay for.................................................................................................................... £0.01 (thats inc door cards!)
Well it was either that or the skip! But the chap that bought them was from the MBOA so paid me £20 and let me keep the change!
Worst bit was i broke a plastic trim on the new seats, £6 for a new panel
