Well, we watched this auction all day, and it ended @ around 1:30am. I thought, "This has to be too good to be true. I've seen ITR Cams go for $250 at the LEAST!" I see them normally go for $280-$300 and higher, and I found these and no one was bidding on them. They look pretty legit, and have the rings or indentions so that you know they're real ITR's...

It still just seems too good to be true, ITR's for $150. Brand new too might I add....

Anyway, here's a link to the auction. LMK if my dad got screwed or if he got a hell of a deal :goodjob:

Ehh, I dunno. Looks iffy to me because the pictures of the notches don't even look like they were taken by the owner.

^^Most likely Photoshop, to make them look better. But none the less risky, buying them less then half of the buy-it-now price.

mmmm, well my dad bought them anyway, so w/e. it's his money, not mine. lol

sum other guy said that he thinks they're aftermarket cams w/ similar specs are the ITR...but it says in the auction that they are real ITR cams from Honda, so idk wtf...

And the guy has like 98% feedback too..

well if you get them and they're fake you could always leave the guy bad feedback... or dyno test with them on to see if your dad is getting any gains from them...

well, my dad wants to put in new retainers and springs and change a shit ton of stuff before he installs them, and he aint got that much money for all of that stuff right now, so it'll be a while i'm sure.

got this e-mail from the guy tonight...

Sorry, my trip got extended, I got back this morning, went to the vets to pick up my dog and while I was in the vets my car got broken into. I knew I should have gone to the shipping place first, I had the cams on the front seat. I'm so sorry, my insurance said they wouldn't cover it, because they weren't attahced to my vehicle, I will be refunding your money. I'm so sorry! If I get any more in I will contact you and honor the price. Thank you for your understanding....

how fucking lame.
