SO TRYING TO SAVE MONEY BY USING EBAY IS A SIN, BUT SUPPORTING SHOPS AND PAYING OVERHEAD IS OK???????

EBAY SUCK FOR BUISNESS OWNERS BECAUSE IT GIVE THE LITTLE GUYS BREAKS ON PRICING, BUT THE QUALITY IS ALWAYS IN ? UNTILL YOU GET THE PRODUCT AND COMPARE IT.

I SEE BOTH SIDES OF THIS, AND TO BE HONEST IM ALL FOR SAVING SOME CASH FOR THE SAME PRODUCT IF I CAN

I WILL BE HONEST I HAVE BOUGHT ALOT OF STUFF OFF OF EBAY MOST OF THEM HAVE ACO****S WITH PLACES LIKE KEYSTONE AND ITS GENUINE PARTS THEY ARE E NET BUISNESS OWNERS TRYING TO MAKE MONEY WHILE THEY ARE AT WORK LOL. SO THE QUALITY OF THE PRODUCTS YOU GET IS BASED ON YOUR REASEARCH NOT JUST BECAUSE ITS A EBAY PART.

I'm kinda anxious to see what you end up with Chris. Every 044 I know of has a 18mm female inlet. The ebay ad says 14mm... And most of the Porsche models they specify this as a replacement for is incorrect. The correct pump would be the 979.

Cancel the order before they ship or call to let them know you will refuse them for your money back.

Swing by, if it's different than a "real" 044, I'd like to know what the fakes flow.

this issue came to head a year or two back, some people on this site were slingling the bootleg 044's if I remember correctly.

Best price I found so far for genuine 044's is $175ea

Everybody on this site use to ***** them out for $250 until I guess they realised Titan had been selling them for $190 for a long time, now the prices are $190 lol

so the fakes are etched "made in Germany"

and the reals are stamped "made in Czech Republic"

Has anyone had a known real one say "Made in Germany"?
