Seems the new listing term for some shady sellers now is "Vintage Original" on their Ebay listing.I suppose a play on words to escape the misreprenstation of the item.Some sellers are going to all lengths to sell their fake stuff to uninformed buyers! mad

If they say "vintage original" I would think they are lyeing if its not vintage nor original. I usually put vintage original in my ebay titles so that if someone types either vintage or original + gas pump or globe or whatever, they'll find me.

i just listed 50+ oil cans... and I started with only putting "Vintage..." but eBay suggested I add "Original" to each title. so I then started every single title with "Vintage Original..."

but the good thing about this, is that if you buy an item that turns out to be fake and they put "Vintage Original" in the title, you will be protected by ebay because they mis-represented the item.
