ISP West always has a LOT of stuff on auction at ebay, but a few days ago I spotted a pair of side mirrors which they were selling as type 3 mirrors. These are clearly not type 3 mirrors, and my guess is that they aren't even VW mirrors. I emailed them to point out the error and eventually got this response. Apparently they feel that there is no problem with what they are doing as long as people don't catch on. I present this here only so those of you on the list will become aware of their deception and their general attitude. If you want to check them out for yourself go to: http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/ebayISAPI.dll?MfcISAPICommand=ViewI tem&item=1858963890 Sorry, but you'll have to paste it back together.
