Here is the advert. Ignore the price for now, but look at the wording.

Four

It states in multiple places 4 pcs/set and 4 pack.
I've seen of these kind of listings on ebay and Temu and digging deeper it seems likely that you only get 1 item not a set.
Just send them a message to confirm.

yeah 4 but dont expect quality , the wheels look plated plastic to me

this is an interesting statement too..

"which can provide a 3000 lbs load capacity with 1000 KG wheel"

not sure i would trust them with 1000kg or 3000lb

4 - it clearly states 4Pack.

You have to select number of individual pieces at the stated price, four would be £40 odd quid

Not to any logic of mine. The way it is worded I would expect to get four !

 

[Smallfry]

Anyway, I ordered one, and despite what the ad says, given the price, I sorta expected to get just one, , and it arrived this morning.

Wheel centre is indeed plated plastic, which will come off in a strong breeze. The weight rating is clearly for a set of four, but I suspect Chinese Kgs are somewhat less than they are here in Europe. OK for the money though, but its the principle !

I actually needed two, so will have to wait for another one to finish my creation !

if you click on memu box click on say 2 it brings up 2 wheels in picture so price is per wheel but yes its misleading

 

[steveo3002]

quick look i expect a pack of four as per the title , then when looking i see the drop down menu to choose 1/2/3/4 so they scam you into think its a cheap price for four but the headline price is for one

4 but I have been caught out in the past, with eBay you if they send one eBay will sort it, best message first.
If you had asked earlier I have just returned from Asda they do 4 decent wheels for £1

OK... That took me a second

 

[hotponyshoes]

Title says 4pack not 4 pack or pack of 4.

So, going by the drop down list, one wheel made by (or branded by) a company called 4pack.

Plus you won't get anything of decent quality in that size for that price.
If you want a genuine 1000kg rating you'll be £100+ I expect.

Shoddy practice by the seller though.
An ebay return won't cost you anything and might make the seller rethink the advertising method.
Or, just buy them all one at a time. Seller will have to pay 4 lots of postage & ebay fees then and make less than if he had advertised them properly!

What do you do with the rest of the shopping trolley though?

 

[Blobber]

Report the advert to ebay, the title clearly states 4

Good for putting stuff in while you pressure wash it off

Plenty of jobs for them in the garden !

Yeah the wording is poor or designed to deceive.

The way the advert reads in the description heading it's 4 x trucks, ( wheels ), for the price of £11.98p

But read correctly, looked at, each truck, ( wheel ), is termed as a piece --1 x piece = 1 x wheel at £11.98p each.

4 x pieces or a pack of 4 trucks = 4 x trucks, ( wheels ), total £41.99p

Consumers shouldn't have to do acrobats when purchasing, adverts should be clear, report it to eBay.

Cut the handle off and turn it upside down to make a bird feeder cage, to keep the Sparrowhawks off.

 

[angellonewolf]

shows 4 pack on meny bits but does say pces not pack off

but yes missleading ask to return the item it will be at there cost so at least its costing them to send and recive it back

enought people do it they will take it down
