Should I be Afraid? (Fleabay item)

Price almost seems too good to believe.

Aren't INA a decent brand of bearings, or is there a chance it's "Chinoiserie"?

Belt is coming up for mileage life, if you believe the 80000km rule of thumb.

Cheers, Adam.

INA are a respected bearing manufacturer which vouches for the pulleys, toothed belts are only manufactured by a relatively small number of companies most of which are American, I think Continental also, which is German and Pirelli. I've never seen a unknown brand toothed belt.

Hi Addo

Lots of consumables for our older cars are now being remaindered by suppliers and factors. Some get sold off as job lots some ebayed as items.
So it is probably worth the gamble on your item.
