Hi again!

I've ordered a skateboard complete recently. It was pretty
cheap (45$ + 45$ in import), so I decided to order some more
solid trucks.

Does this ebay-store seem legit?
CLICK ME (http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/ELEMENT-DESTRUCTO-5-0-Black-Gold-Skateboard-Trucks_W0QQitemZ270200247424QQihZ017QQcategoryZ238 30QQcmdZViewItemQQ_trksidZp1742.m153.l1262)
The seller is called Toddtwist.

And after what I've heard, they are worth the money. (?)

Yeah, it is a legit store, I have emailed him about some of his items and he has got back to me.
Plus he is a Power Seller and has 99.7% positive from 19685 sales!!!!
My advice is go ahead and buy the trucks if your into them.

Thanks a lot for a quick and clear answer ;)
I will probably order them today then.

EDIT:
Just one more 'beginner-question':
If my deck is 7.62" x 31.5", Is it any limitation of what kinds of trucks
I need, in connection with width and length of the trucks? (hmm, is this correct written?)

The 5.0's will be fine on a 7.62 but some 4.75's (trucks meant for a 7.5 deck that are also known as 7.5 trucks) will also work.
There is not a specialist size for 7.62 decks but 5.0's will work just fine
