    I think selling manuals for whatever amount of money is ok as long as you state that they are reproductions...just as you said you stated. Thats all anyone on Ebay can ask for, is the truth...in order to bid accordingly. I can't understand why someone would have a problem with you selling manuals if your being honest with the buyer....

    This thread was not started by someone complaining about allegedly overcharging for an item on ebay

    This thread was started by someone complaing about someone that was lieing in their discription to sell an item on ebay ....

    Your right, you can't overcharge on ebay because it is a free market and people can decide to buy it or not...but making statements that aren't true to sell your product, I think one could argue about the fairness of that...

    funny i should read this thread AFTER i get my key sent to me from Jimmy in the mail today.

    only one problem, Jimmy.

    You left the receipt, dated 04-24-2006 from Wynn in the box my key came in! :(

    I will NOT post the receipt because it has your address and last name on it. I will be respectful and courteous.

    I guess I just paid $135 bucks too much. Whatever, I guess that's what us Ferrari guys do, pay too much for ****. :)

    Anyhow, I am not hating on you. I bought it, you didn't force me. If it doesn't, the receipt gets posted, brother mane.

    Just one thing, this will work as a key in my 360, right?

    this is an old thread. but, i will vouch and say the keys are great (i don't think Ferrari makes them anymore to work as actual keys) and yes, it works no issues.

    The " Red Key" is also standard on the 599 GTB. You get "two" with purchase. So if you want to get picky he is misrepresenting the product he is trying to sell.

    Jimmy states--This key cannot be ordered through any Ferrari dealer unless you are a owner of an Enzo Ferrari. Ferrari has stopped issuing blank keys since two years ago and will only sell them uncut out of the factory AFTER submitting the necessary documents to prove you are an ENZO owner. This is your very rare opportunity to get an original Ferrari ENZO blank key and cut specifically to your F-Car!



    Is this true???? If not then isn't this false advertising?
