I saw this ad when i was getting my wheels refurbed,but my nuts polished up good!
Says their GENUINE mazda nuts & fit rx7,but the ad dose\'nt state if they\'ll fit Fb\'s?
Maybe the seller has more details.

I know the FD needs 20 nuts, I also think the FC needs 20 if so then they must be for the FB Dear Holmes.

It definitely said new in the auction.

I know you never know yours my be new, I have tired one on the car and they look ok.
 Under £1 per nut is still very cheap though.

yeah, if they\'re in good nick, then a quid each is a bargain I suppose. I would still probably have gone for them.
I just don\'t like being deceived..... either they\'re new or they\'re not.

If their used he should of said so,but he could of said almost as good as new.

File a dispute with Ebay straight away. The seller is responsible for the item until you have safely received it, not until he sticks it in the post box.
If they do turn up, you can always cancel the claim.
Ask Paypal to refund your money.
