  don't be a **** (dick)
  
  the auction clearly states that the tubes cannot be expected to be genuine.
  
  I worry about the general level of education as it relates to reading, writing and numeracy.

    No reason to be insulting, especially when *you're* the one who doesn't understand this situation. These products violate international copyright and trademark laws. It's illegal to sell them, regardless of disclosure.

  Ebay has strict rules against selling counterfeit items.
  
  I reported the auction.

    Good luck. I have reported several fraudulent ads/sellers to ebay and no action has been taken. All they are interested in is the bucks.

    Their new Global Shipping Program is a total scam of highly questionable legality. They use Pitney Bowes as an intermediary to make the business appear to be at arms length and then cop hefty kickbacks for every consignment. The overseas consumer pays a premium for a dysfunctional service: the items are transferred all over the US using rock bottom cost carriers before shipping, and hence take longer to arrive than USPS. Because of multiple handing items are also more frequently damaged.

    Ebay have inflicted this monstrosity on sellers as a default so they have to opt out if they want to consign the item themselves. Many don't even realise Ebay has imposed it on them and the implications for their overseas sales figures.

    I just hope some class actions eventuate.

      15 years of living on ebay and after the last weeks. I have had enough and now this!.Like I want some 16 year old kid repacking my vintage tt globes.
      
      I have decided to buy more local and live with what brands are supported. ebay is just gone from bad to worse. Though I guess for rare valves I am still stuck with it. But from now on I am going to try real hard to avoid ebay. I have signed up for amazon too.
      
      I bought a pair of 814 that arrived this week with only one in it. I wonder if this had anything to do with it.

        Go for bargains and you won't go far wrong .
        
        Ebay is seriously crap these days . I'm thinking of using another venue for sales . They don't seem to be interested in small businesses , they appear to be trying to make it more like Amazon and attract the large corporations . The coverage is good , apart from that expect the odd problem or two
