Someone’s gonna be very disappointed they didn’t read the fine print.

Seller went through a lot to add all of the oem decals and make it look as factory as possisble.

 

[Chainsaw Jim]

Isn't it against eBay rules to sell counterfeit items?
I'd be willing to bet Stihl would slap a lawsuit on this fella if they catch wind of it... especially since he mentions how many times he's already done it.

The thing that p!sses me off the most about Ebay (in the UK that is, don't know how bad it is StateSide) is how much Stolen property is being shifted on it.

A workmate got a bike stolen once. On ebay the next day!

 

[cus_deluxe]

I sure dont like guys putting all the stihl stickers and stuff on there trying to pass it off. And its sort of implied that the quality of parts in the kit is on par with oem, which its certainly not. Im happy with my 660 kit, but i paid a couple hundred bucks, not $800+...buyer beware should be ebays slogan these days.

 

[Fruecrue]

I can’t believe anybody looking for a 660 and willing to spend that $, would overlook the fact that it’s not genuine.
I would also assume the same buyers to not spend over $800 on a counterfeit.

Makes me wonder if there’s something fishy going on. False bids perhaps to drive the price up?

 

[cus_deluxe]

I had the same thought, thats a lot of bids on one of these, when that price would buy you a mint oem 660 all day. I know ive been the victim of those types of bids:bid on an item, 3 days go by with no bids, at the last second another bidder drives it up just below your max bid...

 

[FergusonTO35]

I think Fleabay secretly doesn't mind counterfeits as long as it doesn't get them in hot water. Look at how many obviously fake Leupold scopes are sold there.

 

[old guy]

There's one of those on criaigslist in mpls. too, I don't he wants that much for it tho.

 

[Dub11]

About $400-500 bucks they'll be making

 

[lwn9186]

He is also listing them on Craigslist.

Here's an accurate review:

Likes it fuel. A little hard to start

 

[RIDE-RED 350r]

So the listing seems to be gone now... Somebody buying the chinese kits, assembling them, slapping some genuine article badges on and calling it a Stihl???

 

[lwn9186]

He has another listed. The other auction may have ended.

The one I linked to is gone, not ended.

That listing seems more honest about what it is. I don't see a problem with that one

 

[J_M____]

You can report it to eBay. There is a report button on the page. It’s a violation of listing practices, search and browse manipulation(mentions stihl when it’s not) and keyword spamming(mentioning “like stihl”)

 

[FergusonTO35]

I'll try that with the fake Leupolds and see if anything happens.

The one I saw was a Buy it Now, no bidding.

 

[a. palmer jr.]

If I ever have a saw that's worth $650 you can bet I'll never put it on ebay...
