Do you think people are buying the valves above expecting to get fakes?
First alarm bell is eBay.
Second alarm bell is that the seller is not a known reputable bike retailer and has no other bike parts for sale
Third alarm is that the seller says the item is unpackaged.
I’m guessing the price is low too, but I didn’t look into the retail cost for this item.
Anyway I wouldn’t trust this kind of source if I wanted a genuine item.
