Talking L-tuned Emblems on Ebay

There is a seller on ebay (lexmaniac) that is selling l-tuned emblems for all interested. He claims that they are authentic, said that they were obtained from a dealership in the New York New Jersey area that had them in storage until now. I purchased some myself hope they're for real. He's sellin them for $149 plus shipping.

Thanks i hope so too. I'm gonna be real mad if i find they are fake. I think the real ones come in the package with a metal plate with the part number and some other stuff on it.

good lord. heres the thread i started on this guy a while ago: https://www.clublexus.com/forums/sho...ight=lexmaniac

its about FAKE L TUNED EMBLEMS this guy sells... i believe chuckb also posted my thread link.. i sincerely hope these are the real emblems and that this dude did not jack up the price on the fakes/stickers ANOTHER $100 from what he was already raping people for..... got a link to the auction you won? post it up, it's easy to tell as long as he posted a pic.

is that the same auction you won? if it is, they look to be real this time... HOPEFULLY.. whats FUNNY is this guy is admitting in this auction that these are the REAL discontinued OEM l tuned emblems, just like he was with the vinyl STICKERS he had listed up as the same auction...he knows the deal, hes just being a scumbag and ripping off as many people as he can... when this first happened a few months ago and he had the stickers up for sale as "discontinued rare original l tuned" i emailed him and told him what an *** he was and to remove the auction before i told ebay, obviously he never listened..i told people on here about it so they'd have fair warning but then i just gave up on it...one things for sure this guy is definitely shady as hell and i wouldnt buy anything from him even if you offered to pay for it for me. pssht, look at that awesome $12 for UPS shipping for these things you could stick in an envelope for 39 cents..worst case scenario to avoid damage $3.85 for a usps priority box thats gonna get to you in only two days instead of ups 5 day ground.. these will still probably show up to your doorstep strapped to a turtles back in 3 months..this dude pockets every shady dime he can get

There are many out there in all shapes and forms who look to get over and scam people. Being scammed is something that I really take to heart. I agree research is he key instead of just jumping in an throwing your money into something that u want but may not know too much about. This is not to criticize but I too can get caught up in the excitement but gotta take a step back and focus.

Yea I compared them to the ones in the auction i had just lost to someone else on here and they seemed to be the same. I put my bid at $202 and the other bidder won it for$204.50 i was pissssst. But i really hope these are the real deal because if they aren't i'll probably sell them to my cousin. lol
