If you can locate fotographs of the real McCoys, send them to the seller and ask them if what you received was mistakenly-shipped. Or just blow it o ff which is what it sounds like you are inclined to do anyways

I bought what was identified as Campagnolo serrated brake washers on eBay.  They're pictured in a Campy plastic bag.  However, what I received was wrapped in plain paper without the plastic Campy bag pictured in the auction and the washers do not have anything stamped on them (ie: none of the usual Campagnolo stampings).  I suspect these are

simply knockoffs/fakes.  They look fine & will perform the function but

it bugs me that they were identified as original Campagnolo parts.

No one else was bidding so they were cheap.  I won't leave negative feedback because it's a small incidental part.  But I'm considering neutral feedback as a heads-up to future buyers.  Thoughts & opinions?
