Default Notice about "Motodyne" items sold on eBay

Over the course of the past few years we have witnessed eBay auctions using our trade name that are not legitimate. This practice has harmed unknowing consumers who apparently now want to hold MotoDyne accountable. A search in audiworld shows 800 plus posts, mostly revolving around this eBay controversy that has largely mislead public opinion.

With current eBay sellers offering MotoDyne related products, I urge you ask for the serial numbers of the items and then verify them through MotoDyne.

Among the items we know that have been offered falsely on eBay are the MotoDyne Audi 12v supercharger, Motodyne 928 spare tire cover, Motodyne Porsche hood heat shield , Motodyne wastegate spring, Motodyne 1.8T N20 system, Motodyne Getrag 6spd conversion kit, and now the 4.2L 5 valve supercharger system

Default You better check the lastest auction....looks like it has a bid on it already

by a person who either is Motodyne or is pretending to be Motodyne.....check out their feedback....all from users who are no longer registered users...

It's easy to follow that feedback and see that somebody is bidding on their own items....and it sure looks like they have been selling Motodyne products....and who ever is "posing" as Motodyne sure writes like Rob does if you look at that feedback. I've seen him write terrible things here on audiworld.....I've also spoke with him and found that he was pleasant and knowlegable....but I don't know why he attacks people on the internet.

My suggestion.....don't post on Audiworld....it's only going to start huge flames everywhere.<ul><li><a href="http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&amp;category=33578&amp;item =2479154014&amp;rd=1">Follow the auction and bidder's feedback here....it's obvious</a></li></ul>

Default Please get me the seller contact info

...and I'll be your personal mechanic for life, I'll probably even get a pay raise. Thanks for the tip so far.
