Ebay ripoffs

Hi all,
Was just browsing on ebay under yamaha ty and noticed a front wheel bearing kit for sale for $26.98 claiming to suit the yamaha ty 350.
Oh wow it comes with double lip seals!!!!!!
Hold on, the bearings are sealed and there is no provision for the 'seals' in the hubs, let alone that according to the parts manual for the 350 there are no 'seals' for the front wheel bearings.
I went to the local bearing supplier and got the same branded bearings fro $4 each.
Caveat emptor.
