If I didn't like the wording on the bread package at the local grocery store, should I stop buying from them? When I see someone doing something sleazy on ebay, I skip it no matter how attractive the offer is. I know a straighforward ad when I see one.

If you're trying to say that there are much, much better places to buy vanagon parts, I'm with you. I turn to the list and its vendors these days, having seen the error of my ways after some close calls.

Ebay is a good place to sell, a poor place to buy. But every once in a while something decent comes up. I still look for bargains there, though.
