Default [For sale] 4 interior doors audi A8 D2

hi everyone! I made a big mistake! I ordered 4 interior doors for Audi A8 D2. But on the ad it was written 'brown ' whereas in reality they are 'grey '. Since it costs me so much to return them, I prefer to keep them and propose them to you. You never know! if any of you are interested! )
Small price, because big shipping costs!!!!
P.S: interiors come from an English Audi!
Below a copy of the ad
Generic Notes on this Part: Rear Door Cards have blinds
Donor Car: 2000 Audi A8 D2 FL 4196cc Quattro Sport
Donor Car Colour: Bodywork is Ly1T Melange. Interior trim is Brown N5D/Wh
i can give some pics!

Irrespective of where you purchased these from, I would say you are legally entitled to have the seller pay for posting them back, in addition to providing a full refund. You didn't make the mistake, as they provided false information. Good luck with however you decide to proceed.

That is a Prestige description. Have you spoken to them about it? It may be a mistake in the description or packing, in which case I'm sure they would be happy to help rectify the issue.

Do you have any pictures of what you received vs what you were expecting? Did the colour codes in the description match those of your car?

I don’t know if the ad was fake, here’s what I saw when I read it.

The image shows brown panels, which in addition are the same color as mine! = ))
Here is the color of one of the 4 panels I received.
It’s not quite brown, is it?

That looks like Swing Grey to me, possibly platinum, but its hard to tell in photos.

What do the colour code stickers on the inside of the panels say?

For example here is a soul black one:





Code 'WH' is described as 'Jazz/tango'. I've never seen that in person.

Beat me to it suggesting checking the stickers on the panels themselves for code confirmation.

Is it possible that A8parts just made a typo with 'tan' instead of 'tango'? As MJ suggested, contact A8parts direct and see what can be done.

Looking at both the photos, neither is what I would think of as being 'tan'. This is what I would expect tan to look like (the seats):
