These guys should be shut down. The VIN tag seems to have been stamped from the front instead of from the back. That's a way obvious blunder. I like how he describes it, "neat little stainless gadget". I can't see how ebay could allow this. I sent a note to ebay to report it. Maybe if we all do it something will happen. We'll see.

E bay ain't gonna do squat! They are protected by laW! According to them and so as long as they are not legally in a bind they still make there money!I am beginning to loose all respect for ebay!How can ebay not be legally binded to something like this when they have been made aware it is illegal!

I am not supporting what this guy is selling BUT..eBay is not going to do anything. It's not against the law to sell a piece of metal with CHEVROLET DD stamped on it. There is no visible VIN number stamped that coorelates to a specific vehicle. If there had been, then that would be a different story.

BTW, nowhere does he mention VIN in his auction.

Of course not, that would immediately trigger a red flag. The guy is being deceptive by 'selective omission', and that's the whole point here. eBay may or may not do anything to stop this, but one thing is certain - if no one complains, there's no chance it will be stopped. It takes about 30 seconds and a few mouse clicks to file a complaint, so it's not a great effort
