Beware of eBay turbo! VJ11
« on: September 24, 2010, 05:00:00 PM »
There's a VJ11 turbo on sale right now on eBay & the pictures are of the same one I just bought from the same seller. I have the turbo sitting in my garage right now! I can definately tell because you can see 3 very small hairlines around the small hole on the hot side. They're so small I think it'll work alright but the one up there isn't what you're buying! Maybe he listed it again by accident, I don't know though. If you are someone on this forum bidding I can even post pics. to show you. Exact same pics. from my buy.

Look familiar!!! My listing # was 260667234050 & I "bought it now", the one up now is 260667338234. Just to cover my ass! Maybe he relisted by mistake, but if not that's not the turbo someone is bidding on!

Maybe, but I wouldnt put my $ on it. He never left feedback & when I did it shows up as private so you can't see the listings.  That's usually for high end buyers or ones that have price jackers in my experience as a buyer & seller. Anyway it was only cautionary. Not a word in the listing changed either including the fonts.  It's just not the turbo someones bidding on.
