bobtheseat turned out to be completely unreliable. He deceived me a few months. I managed to buy from someone else. I do not recommend bobtheseat :|

I contacted him for the first time on August 8, 2017. He wrote back to me that he will make a seat as he returns from vacation, after August 28. On September 9 he wrote "Can make one for you next week, cost is £ 150 plus post." I asked what was going on and he wrote back on September 20; "Been busy but will make one as soon as I clear some of my backlog." The whole of October did not happen. Again, I contacted him and he wrote to me on November 8: "Have cleared most of my backlog, is it a complete seat I am supposed to be making?". For my next question, he replied with the question: "Do have a GT550 seat made was I supposed to be making you one?" - it was December 28th. When I reminded him that I have been waiting for several months, he wrote: "Have no excuses, guess I just forgot, will be back on the 8th so will make it first job, was it the early or late model.". He did not even answer my last message anymore. :( I don't recommend him. I lost a lot of my time.
