2003-2008 ECLASS
...I think there are a lot more people out there with a 2002 W211 then with a 2008 (or even 2007) W211
Quote:
THIS IS NEW...TAKE OUT FROM 05 E 55 AMG LIKE BRAND NEW
...so it is new but used
Quote:
ALSO, TV IN YOUR CAR ( NEED TV TUNER )
...most european comand do not come with the connector needed for the TV tuner - that is an optional connector - not a standard connector
Quote:
WILL FIT ALL MERCEDES BENZ , BUT , NEED TO GET DASH TRIM AND CABLES !!!
...THIS actually troubles me the most

I like his NO COMP(L)AINT policy though.

Anyways - 1300USD is a killer deal...I must admit and can only wish that I could get comands (with receipt, registered serial number and from established companies) that cheap.

As I was wondering about this seller in the past as well - I actually DID buy a comand from him (auction 7939315329) and eventhough I had my friend take care of picking up the unit and paying for it in cash USD (huntington beach & newport beach are not that far apart), it took 6 weeks before the seller finally came through...and delivered the comand at 10-11pm at a gas station.

As said before though - if he does sell new W211 comands for 1300USD - it IS a killer deal.

greetingz,

As Steve already pointed out, I have seen plenty of BS in his posts. Walk away with your money.

I paid steve fair money for high quality items and he delivered. Even when one of the mirrors failed right as he was on his way to the airport.. he sent a new one right away.. If you buy one of those Comand and find a problem.. you just set fire to $1300...

I have had a customer buy comands from him and go to Steve or myself. He misrepresents auctions/items. I would buy it from STeve and have a good night's sleep.
