Be aware of 66 Valiant/Barracuda lenses on eBay

Recently bought a set of new reproduction upper tail light lenses for my 66 Barracuda from Micas y Mas on eBay. Anyone who's shopped for 'em know these are hard to find, and the guy had reasonably good feedback, so I went against my gut and won the auction.

First of all, seller contacts me and says that he's sold out - I'll need to wait for him to get more before he can ship mine, and it may take 45 extra days!

After a month, I opened a case with eBay, though they said it was too early to do anything. Opening the case seems to have moved things along, as they came about a week later.

Poorly made, with big chunks out of the leading edge where it will show and flashing left on the back of one.

Contacted the seller, who said "you got what you paid for". $50 seems like a lot for a lens that's chipped right out of the mold.

So wanted to pass the word along.

Here's the lens in question:

Mods: if this is in the wrong place, please don't hesitate to move or delete.


Can you file a not as described case or is that out the window since you had a case on this already?
