I followed a link from someone in search of CA-Cycleworks belts. An ebay vendor is selling them (new) - fine fine.
But I notice the People who viewed this item also viewed - out of curiosity at the price listed - I click on:

- And see, to my horror "Item condition:Used"
I'm all for a good deal and have no problem with appropriate use of used parts. But in case anyone ever wonders - never never buy used belts or similar items.
I see those all the time, especially on the European eBay sites when they are breaking a bike.
Major facepalm.
