Default Need help with a picture of lights. Tell me what you see.

Look at the headlights in these pictures and please tell me what you see that is out of the ordinary.

They have white eyelids, which won't match my red srt.

Check the passenger side one as well. Do you see a mounting tab on the top there? And also does it look like a chip is missing out of the innermost mounting tab?

I'll get to what I"m leading toward here in a little bit. I just want someone other than me to look at this pic of "perfect condition headlights".

Can see just ONE mount.
Both mountings on driver side look like they're broken (lower one definitly!).
Lower mounting on passenger side looks damaged (hole for the screw is "open") but not "lost" - but i cannot see the upper mounting.
Compare with my headlights: One is with the other one without the mountings:

Well...... Here's the story.

I bought these headlights from I8URV8 on here. I posted a WTB on here and he replied. Said he had good condition headlights with eyelids for sale. Price is $150 shipped. I asked him if there was anything wrong with them to which he replied no. I figured with his trader rating (50+) that I'd be alright. I get the headlights and both upper mounts are broken. One lower mount is sheared and another is broken to the point I can't use it. I write him and he gives me an attitude about how they were so cheap and that I shouldn't be mad cause I didn't get insurance. So I dub up these pictures in one of his for sale threads. Insurance or no insurance..... they were broke when he shipped them. I just wanted other peoples opinions on the picture showing that they are in fact broken in his posession.

$150 is expensive for headlights. If the tabs werent in the box, then he broke them. I would start a new thread and leave him negative trader rating. Make sure you save the pic to your comp and upload it yourself.

$150 shipped with eyelids isn't too bad I don't think. $100 for headlights and $50 for eyelids is what I considered it.

But no.... the tabs weren't in there and you can see from the pictures they are already broken. I'm going to give him a chance to redeem himself but its not looking good. He hasn't replied since Friday.

I know what you mean. As you can see I've done A LOT of buying and selling on here. I'm not like the majority of the guys with big trader ratings.... Most of mine has been buying. I've been scammed 3 times. I don't consider this a scam..... yet. I don't know his complete take on it and I'd like to hear that from him before I call him out completely on it.

Like Max said - 150 isn't bad. Especially for stockers with eyelids.
But when the mounting is broken - maximum 80 (50 for the eyelids and 30 for the headlights).
Okay - it's possible to repair them - but it looks like shit.
(I know it - i have a "repaired" set cause i urgently needed a set for cheap but i'm not happy with. I don't wanna show it to someone...)
