E-bay Misrepresentation - Neuspeed Or Not?

[pbureau@attbi.com (ATS - Patrick Bureau)]

Ebay is far from bing the most reliable source for item descriptions, as
long as you regard ebay as a one gigantic gararge sale (but ya don;t have to
go from driveway to driveway you'll be fine,

I have seen people saying such and such a part is for an "A2- Scirocco
(74-81), wil not fit the A1 - Scirocco (82-88)"
and I was nice enough to tell the guy that he would sell this item (beleive
it was a spoiler of some sort) better if he actually change his description
to read " for a MKI -Scirocco and not MKII Scirocco " and the idiots, wrote
me a long winded nasty email telling me I did not know a thing about theses
cars...

lolol....
