So, below is the response that I received from
ebay customer service and in my opinion this is pretty much absolute total BS... but this seems to be what
ebay has devolved into as a company these days... Does anyone here honestly think that this set could be fake? If so, why/how so?
ebay customer service also had the gall to send me one of those "how did we do" surveys after sending me this as well... I would appreciate any thoughts on the matter. Thanks.
