Hi, I was browsing UK eBay the other day when I saw a King Pin set for sale
from Moss Europe.:- 

 <https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/173693416361> Austin-Healey 100-4 100-6 3000 -
King pin &amp; Bush set - 1953-1968 BN1-BJ8 | eBay

Or just enter 173693416361.

This item caught my attention because, after reading Roger's book, I was
reminded that QH King Pins are hard to find and was pleased to find some at
the big Beaulieu autojumble some weeks ago. I doubted that any big suppliers
would have QH sets on their shelf and I furthermore doubted that, if they
did have them, they'd need to flog them on eBay...

Anyhow, you'll see that they're giving it a Quentin Hazell part number which
I don't think is appropriate as I suspect that it's not QH.

I queried:- "Is this a genuine Q Hazell item? Thanks"

They replied:- "QH PART NUMBER, BUT NOT BOXED IN QH PACKAGING. rEGARDS"

I replied:- "Thank you for this. But not very helpful. Is it a genuine QH
part?


They replied:-

"I dont believe so, I have no data to confirm QH we just use the part
number."

 

Naturally, I'm not accusing anyone, not hoping to be sued here..but I think
it's careless to say the least. Anybody got anything to add?? I suppose I'm
just curious...does Moss have form for this?

Doubt I'll pester eBay about this as I expect they'd not be too bothered.

Simon
