That's $200 USD, more like 250-275 CAD once received.

Regardless, still a decent price for a clean set of clean headlights.

I hate when sellers don't specify important details such as the diameter. The ad doesn't specify but the wheel shown is a 370mm. Although they show a 370mm, it could just be for illustration. Now would they be in the wrong if they sent a recovered 385mm? That's the kind of thing that turns off many buyers. It's good for the bidders who risk it and get lucky though. I suppose the seller could just not realize there's a difference in size/price.

Ebay used to be excellent for getting vintage BMW stuff but those deals are fewer and far between these days and obscured by a lot of modified, incorrect or replica parts so one has to be able to tell the difference.

Yeah I totally understand. I was so pleased with my mtech 2 wheel 370mm I got new on ebay, also 1 year ago for about $340. it also didn't post a size but had the bmw build numbers on the wheel. so quick look up to refresh my mind and took a risk. it was risk i was willing to take to be the fastest one to bite on it rather then bid or lose it. In the past its worked but also has not worked. due to missing something on the ad or pictures..

[reelizmpro]

Yeah you scored. A part number helps big time but sometimes that's not visible in pics then you have to email the seller and risk notifying them of the difference.
