I contacted the seller of the Serbia Turbo informing him the suit was not an official Olympic suit but just a Turbo for sale for only $40. (he had it tagged at over $100) He responded he didn't know but would check. When he relisted it the price dropped to "only" $99 --2 1/2 times retail. He knows and is out to rip guys off. He is like Radioguy (?) that is selling used items for for 3 or 4 times the price of the item new. Some people just like to rip off people and catering to the lazy or inexperienced shopper. Unfortunately, lately EBay is totally a "Buyer Beware" operation. Stolen items, used or reconditioned sold as new, counterfeits, bad copies and inferior items are too common. After they make a few bucks and/or get too many negative feedbacks they change their account and go for a whole new crop of suckers. EBay doesn't give a shit -- they collect their commission and laugh at those that think they monitor auctions.
