Luckily in the auto restoration world it seems to be common for people to b
e
able to honestly sell repro correctly-logoed parts as such without having
swarms of evil IP lawyers descend upon them. Campagnolo not only won't make
and sell their own correct replacement pieces for comsumables, they threate
n
legal action against those trying to fill the void they themselves created.
If commonsense prevailed in any of several concievable ways none of this
would be necessary.
