    TRD shift knob on ebay(trust worthy?)

    I am looking for a shift knob and saw this guy on ebay selling them for pretty cheap. I normally hate ebay and have sworn off using them for the past 6 years or so but I'm tempted. He has 100% positive feedback. Are there known to be fake trd knobs or knock offs?
