Ebay Headlights..Be wary!!!

I saw this auction just listed on Ebay:

http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eB...tem=2422885839

The pictures happen to be picture I took of MY headlights a few months ago! However, He does state in his description that the pictures are from a different source. Looks like he might have photo-shopped his cars (in red) headlights. I would be wary of the condition or these headlight since the seller is in the auto salvage business!

I guess what I'm saying is that the quality of the headlights on his car is unlikey (and looks like) like the quality of the headlights in the picture. In other words, your not bidding on what you see!

bah... he clearly states that "what you see is NOT what you get" in the add. he merely posted the picture as a representation and stated that the quality is very similar. If anyone was interested in how "similar" the lights were, a simple email would clear this up.

I just dont think its right to bash a guy without at least investigating a little.

And no, its not me and I dont know the guy.

And I dont think the photo is photoshopped. if you blow the picture up to the largest size you can clearly see the junkyard markings on the driverside mirror as well as the reflections of trees, etc...

I am not bashing, but only making a comment. If WE can't look out for each other, who is going to look out for US?

Here is the actual set listed on Ebay:
