[AJD] Ebay 7" Lights probably still a fair price but...

[Bob Currie]

>Chris, you asked "What do you think?


I think you got exactly what he described, and what was pictured. There was 
no inference that those were working lights, and it's unfortunate that you 
had your hopes up. I don't think you were misled at all, and it's always 
important to remember that when you buy off of ebay you can't touch or 
smell, or hear, or examine the product, so you get what you get. That is 
usually backed up by the sellers disclaimer "Where is, as is". So you pays 
yore money and you takes yore chances. Pretty nice looking lenses though.
