I was looking at buying a pair of sx remade pressed side panels. They seem good price. Has anyone bought panels from them ? Asked if they had surface rust etc, told they should not have but can,t see tell as wrapped up, only pressed last week :roll: told. So having doubts . Am I being too cautious.

Wondering if some of these dealers even stock items. Just drop sell if they have a supplier.

What ever happened to Lambretta Body Bits? Out of Luton I believe. They made excellent body work.
That's not going anywhere...

Its best not to buy anything of any value for a Lambretta from ebay.There may be some good sellers,but there are definitely bad sellers.Unfortunately if you buy from a seller and the goods are rubbish and dont fit,your either stuck with it or you send it back,either way its a hassle.You have to buy from each dealer just to tell if there good or bad.This can become very expensive when your stuck with a load of rubbish thats not fit for purpose.

Not saying they are all bad but it's not as if there's a shortage of dealers selling this stuff who aren't on Ebay.

Given the amount of shite that is on Ebay it's sound advice, as far as far as I'm concerned, to be careful who you buy from.
Did you have to do that?
