I am wondering if I am the only one that is under the impression that what I pay for as of late is not what I had in mind when I purchased the item.
Case in point.
I buy a used helmet from someone off Ebay.
The item says
Nolan N102 m
Perfect condition
What I got was a Nolan N102 xs
That smells like it was used as an ashtray
I bought some beautiful Graves exhaust cans.
The surprize
Well, two lefts anyway.
Gorgeous LSL flat bars
The surprize
Cut down one inch on each end
The helmet size was not m for medium in the title. the "m" was a misprint and If I wanted to know the size I should have asked.
I have had more run ins with items that I found different than my expectations and need to ask way more questions in the future. Or pay better attention to the descriptions.

well, if it sound too good to be true...then usually it isn't true...
but yes, I've been lucky so far, you should ask for better pics and check the pics and description with great atention

I seem to do well on Ebay. Picked up a new Shark S900. Unworn and still labelled up, for £100 collected. Right size, colour and was indeed brand new.
It's replacing my R1 colour schemed Arai.

Difference between used and new items in Ebay is not worth effort in 90% of cases (if not more). There is another rule to remember:
You buy and pay once, it's a moment. Then you live and use the thing for a long time. Which one is more important?
Personally, never been happier with the all the things for which I (felt I) have paid too much

The LSL drag bars need cutting down anyway, so you've saved yourself a job.

Just remember two lefts don't make a right.
