An extensive variety of good quality second hand parts for above mentioned BMW-vehicles is available on inquiry at fair prices.

Anything we don't offer in our auctions, just inquire here- we would be delighted to prepare the corresponding auctions for you.

When making an inquiery please try to include the originla-part-number and/or vehicle idetification number (you can find it in you car documents under No.4 "Vehicle-Ident.-Nr.")

Please do not give us the key numbers, also given in the car documentation

Important advice:
Please observe, that many bids are only placed on very short notice to the end of auction - often just a few seconds before termination
In order for you not to be autbidded in the closing seconds of the auction we would advice you to be online,observing or to set a correspondingly higher limit

With us your DON'T PAY ebay-Fees!

Foreign bidders are very welcome, if you are able to communicate in German or English

Complete auction conditions in German can be found at our -page

Some Basics to avoid unnecessary e-Mails:

In the interest of a smooth transaction the eMail address you stored with ebay has to be working and your postal address should agree with the delivery address.

WE will contact the winnig bidder within three working days beginning with the end of auction. Please do NOT send a "where do I have to transfer the money to" mail on the same day.

In case the winning bidder does not hear from us within three days, there must be a problem with his/her mailbox. Please make sure it is not overloaded and have a look in your Spam file. Only if it still doesn't work click here to send us an eMail with your telefone number.
The total costs for shipping will be calculated by our system automatically.
After having read the Dispatch conditions on this page (further down) you can spare yourself the "What-does-shipping-cost-eMails"
Additionally we DON'T need any "I-have-payed-eMails". As soon as the money arrives, the item will automatically reach you within the normal running time of a parcel.
Because of automated processes "I-will-pay-later-eMails" cannot be answered. However 20 days should suffice for everybody, before we request a refund of the provision from eBay.
The time we save, not having to answer any unnecesssary eMails, can be reasonably invested into a faster and more effective processing, wich would help everybody
Therefore all "I-can-find-this-somewhere-else-cheaper-eMails" will be deleted without comment.

Dispatch conditions, as of 29.12.2005

Shipping costs Germany

We exclusively ship by insured parcel. For the shipping of parcels within Germany we charge the "shipping flat rate" quoted in the auction. Payments have to be made in advance via money transfer.

Shipping costs can be found at the bottom of the item page in the space provided for by ebay.

In the case you purchase more than one item from different auctions or several fixed-price items the additional flat rate for any further item is 2,- Euro, provided that shipping can be managed in one collective parcel.

(The decision what fits in one parcel or not has to be up to us. For the people who think you could fit a whole car in one parcel: IT DOESN'T !)

Should somehow the "shipping flat rate" not be quoted in the auction please inform yourself PRIOR to bidding. Just send us an eMail including the item-number and ask for the corresponding shipping conditions. - Once a bid has been placed and the auction is finalised shipping costs are NOT a subject to bargaining!

Because in the past many of our customers did not approve of our shipping-costs, although they had been quoted in the auction and therefore been accepted with the placement of a bid, we offer you this information:
In 95 % of all cases we have to use new cartonage for shipping. Our purchase costs are varying between 0,60 and 8,00 € plus filling material and tape. In the resulting 5% the size of the items enables us to recycle cartons used for "banana and cucumber shipping". We reserve this right for reasons of environmental protection. In addition, our employees (those who do the packing) would like to get their pay check on the 1st of every month. Should anybody not be comfortable with this procedure, we would ask you not to bid on our items.

Items that have been described as "pickup only" or "reiner Abholartikel" HAVE to be collected within 8 days.
Should this not be possible we would ask you to pay in advance using money transfer.

Naturally it is possible to "pick up" items bought from us, however Collection is only possible with a confirmed appointment within 8 days of the end of auction

Please don't forget to state an exact time together with your target date.
Statements such as a.m or p.m as well as tomorrow or next week do not count as time or date consistently. Therefore they will not be accepted

ATTENTION: Please bring the confirmation of your appointment, including the item number!

We do not have OPENING HOURS. Don't be dissappointed if you arrive without appointment and we are closed!

Possible times for pickup with confirmed appointment are:
Mo-Fr: 08:00-12:00 and 12:30-18:00 o'clock
Sa: 10:00-12:00 and 12:30-16:00 o'clock

Should we somehow not manage to confirm your appointment in time for pickup, you can reach us by telefone during the above stated hours.
+49 (0) 900 / 16 42 57 2
0,99€/Min from German conventional network as well as D1

Folks, please do not make the effort of trying to reach us through telefone numbers other than the one above. What you get from the telefone book does not represent the state of time and is just there because the network doesn't manage to delete it.

On collection a one time handling fee of 3,- Euros has to be payed no matter how many items you buy.The latter does not apply to "pickup only" or "reiner Abholartikel" items.

If you pick up your item without confirmed appointment or missing printout of the confirmation we will charge you 5,- Euro for unnecessery efforts you cause us!

We store "pick up" items that have allready been cleared for a maximum of 100 days. Thereafter storage is going to be charged with 1% of the item value per day. In addition the item will be re-placed with ebay and sold. This also applies to parcels that can't be delivered because you gave us the wrong address or similar reasons

In this case we do NOT refund.

Should anybody not want his item delivered by parcel service and insist on shipping by post we will have to charge an additional 5,- Euro in extra handling.
To your information: shipping through post is limited to a maximum of 20 kilos.

The adequate parcel service will be selected by us based on our experiences.

Pricipally we only deliver through our own parcel services or dispatcher and offer you a personal pick up.

Due to technical difficulties Pick-up of your item through your own parcel service is NOT possible.

Should the customer not be met by the parcel service or the dispatcher, we will be forced to subsequently claim any additional costs this causes us from the customer. This will amount to at least 30.- Euros, that, should it become necessary, we will claim through our lawyer.

Shipping costs Oversea

Principally we offer Oversea shipping. However shipping as well as international money transfer costs are more expensive. As an alternaitve to international transfers, at present we can only offer you to ship the money per mail ( i.e. certified mail or similar). (It is much cheaper and in most cases also faster)

Due to the high fees we do not accept payment through Paypal or Credit card.

Costs for Oversea shipping are based on weight and vary from case to case. Therefore we can not offer a fixed rate shipping.

As a general rule you can assess shipping costs for Europe with double the price of national shipping.

Because of Custom regulations shipping into Switzerland has to be charged with an additional 5,- Euro.

Minimum cost for oversea shipping is 20,- Euro (Austria 15,- Euro / Switzerland 25,- Euro)

Please inform yourself about our shipping conditions PRIOR to bidding. Just send us an eMail including the item-number and ask for the corresponding shipping conditions. - Once a bid has been placed shipping costs are NOT a subject to bargaining!

Payment and Shipping

We only ship with advance payment and offer you a personal pick up with confirmed appointment.

Because an increasing number of people has developed a habit of not accepting "cash on delivery" parcels. We will NOT offer this method of payment any longer

Furthermore impossible are the following:

foreign currencies

trade-in

purchase on bill

credit

credit card

Paypal

installment

check

trade-off

partial payment

trust service

postponement of payment
Any other crazy ideas we forgot to mention here

To be precise: NO item whatsoever will leave our storage before having been fully paid for!

Apologies to all the honest customers but there is no other way to make it work - say thanks to the black sheep!

Delivery times and other deadlines

stock goods and used parts will be dispatched within 2 working days after receipt of payment
Due to the complexity of packing bulky parts, the dispatch of those can take uo to 5 days.
Items offered as new, especially fixed-price items are normally in stock and count as stock goods.
In the case of overwhelming demand or special parts that are not stocked in great numbers, especially air filters, it can happen that the item is not immediatley available.
For Items that are not in stock we will arrange an omnibus order on mondays and they will be delivered as soon as they are available. In 98% of all cases this means they will be delivered within one week after the order reaches our contractor.
We shall not be liable for delays due to delivery problems of the contractor.
No dispatchment on saturday.
Credit and Complaints are only handled on weekends as there is no dispatch.
Because of our automated system, on day 10 after the end of auction without receipt of money exactly ONE monition will be sent.
Another 10 days without receipt of money and the ebay-provision will be credited back and the item will be re-auctioned. If payment is late you LOOSE your right of delivery, should the item have been resold allready

Processing does exclusively work through this site, where you will have to provide your telefone number and make shipping arrangements.

Your telefone number will only be used for queries concerning shipping.
This helps avoiding unnecessary long shipping times. So it is in your own interest that you enter a properly working telefone number.

For reasons of German fiscal law spare parts are sold with invoice and accounted VAT. This is no warranty that you are buying new parts. NEW is only what we advertise as NEW in our auctions.
Anybody bidding on used parts anticipating new parts for a few Euros is wrong. Rather save our time, drive to your nearest BMW dealer and order new parts at corresponding prices.
Included in delivery of used parts is only what we promise in the description.
If accessories belong to an Item it is mentioned in the description. (i. e.: ... with connecting lead)

The sum is payable within 10 days prior to us returning the item. Should the sender not meet this deadline we will charge a flat rate of 5,- Euro per commenced week for storing purposes. Should the amounting sum exeed the current market value of the item, the latter becomes the property of the seller.
Concerning used parts which are offered as fully functual this is related to the sole item.
Accus, Batteries as well as other expendable parts or items are not related to the functuality and therefore cannot be a reason for a customer complaint.
Items sold as "broken" "damaged" "battered" or "not tested" ("defekt" "beschädigt" "abgenutzt" "nicht getestet" ) or with a similar attribute CANNOT in any case be returned.
Broken is broken. We do not discuss whether an item is more or less broken
Likewise, items offered with the comment "state as pictured" ("Zustand wie abgebildet")" CANNOT be taken back if the buyer has not made an enquiery to the actual state the item is in.
We shall not be liable for mistakes of our suppliers and parcel services such as: shortfalls, delayed delifery or transportation damages.
