If I was you I would set up a case through paypa land see what they say. Ans you might not have to send it back, check it out. I've delt alot on the fleabay and I had one issue and set up a case, got full refund and didnt have to ship it back. Not knocking the site sell all my school books through there, but some things arent worth the hassle of purchasing online.

I'm actually going today to get my plug from the stealership before I change my oil...I'll let you know if mine looks the same, but yours doesn't look very "genuine"...jus sayin...

I complained to flea bay and got a full refund. And the guy still has it listed as Genuine new in package. What a scammer. I'll wait a few days and see if he wants to pay for me to ship them back. If not, I'll scrap them.

I'll just keep watching for a real GM bolt with magnetic tip to come up. Surely there must be a few still out there.

Glad you got a refund. Wish ebay would do something about the guys listing though. That's kinda shitty that he keeps getting away with it.

You have to be very careful when buying "OEM" parts online, the majority are aftermarket but they still list the GM number for cross reference. Most of the time they wont say outright they are aftermarket, you need to look through the listing meticulously to find it is aftermarket. In my experience, the best way to get OEM parts there is to search ebay by the GM # itself.

Wow I'm so sick of getting shafted on flea bay!! This is it!!

Now I ordered some 90 degree bent heater hose for my Radix, and it came in with 1991 as the manufacturing date on the box!!! Is it still good or is it like a tire which I've heard has a 10 year shelf life?
