Ebay listing WARNING
It was brought to my attention that some one on ebay is selling MBH motorsports headers... BUYER BEWARE! this is not a dealer of ours. I can assure you this seller does not have these headers. To the unsuspecting buyer/bidder this could end up being a nightmare. Please note Dyno-Comp or MBH motorsports has no affiliation with this seller.

Auction ended and someone had made a $3500 offer, which was NOT accepted.
If it was bogus wouldn't they have sold it for that price ? And, yes, based on the feedback, I think something's amiss.

Most likely some size 27 woman logged into a phishing email with her ebay credentials...but I'd think they would offer a little more aggressive price to try and capitalize on the scam..lol

He's one of those drop ship guys probably. He has no inventory but if you buy from him he'll call up MBH and order them and have them drop shipped to you. That's why the price is high, too. He makes a few bucks (for doing nothing, really) while trying to build up some fly by night Euro parts business. A lot of internet "businesses" have no inventory and rely on the customer not knowing any better.

I thought was the same as some others... Maybe he was going to try and move them. Then contact us to buy them if he did sell them. The thing that got me worried is... If someone bought these headers on ebay, then came on the forum asking "where are my headers?" It could get ugly fast. You potentially have a recipe for getting ripped off.
Having someone who actually wanted the headers, spend a good amount of money on them, only to not receive them. When they could have went to us or one of our dealers and had no issue. We dont want that happening to anyone. Its not to much to ask to know who is selling your product. Nor do we want to have our products used in any potential scam.
In my eyes, its better to air on the side of caution and alert MBW members. Funny thing is.. If I put a set of headers up for sale on Ebay for "X" amount of dollars.. And someone offered me "Y" amount of dollars. I might have said yes.. However thats something only I, or my dealers can do.

This guy is a scam. Just a month ago, he claimed to be an "authorized" RennTech dealer and was selling RennTech long-tube headers and tune for CLK63 BS but when I asked RennTech about him, they said he was not authorized and that there was no guarantee that his stuff is actually RennTech's. He does the same thing was BMW products.
One should be very careful about buying from e-bay especially nowadays with all the different scams going on.
