because you can buy ANYTHING on ebay...

Im guessing that you did not buy from a manufacture - you purchased from a private party...

If it was from a company, that company could be fined several thousand $$$ for selling the HID kit - but then again, thats why they hide behind eBAY rofl

Another thing to conceder is the fact that you bought a product that McCulloch had discontinued USA sales of since August 2003 (...and most likely, also discontinued production of)
