That blows, I wonder if the seller really thinks it's not a knockoff?

I think for me it's gotten to the point where buying anything off of ebay is just about the most retarded thing you could do. Last year I pieced my entire turbo kit together off of there. Let me tell you it sucked I pretty much had to file a claim on every other thing I bought.

That knock off would fool a lot of people. I think it wouldve probably got me if you hadn't pointed it out. Although when you compare it to the real thing it's obvious.

Isnt there a way to report that? It looks pretty genuine to me but the price seems low.

The font is different for GARRETT. First thing I noticed.

something interesting too is you can always tell that it's not the real deal when the compressor swirl starts out like it does on the fake as apposed to the real thing. dont know what I mean? compare the compressor pics between the two.
