I suppose your question tells me how smart people think I am. Confused Cue the laugh track. Fortunately not an ebay transaction gone wrong. Tool of the trade: Am refereeing lacrosse this year.

Imagine the feeling... awaiting delivery of your AMAZING ebay Fox 40... UPS driver gets to the door, with a tiny box.

Oh NOS!

You secretly knew that $11.99 was WAY too cheap for a NIB DH fork...

On the bright side, new safety whistle!!
