Is this a fake board on EBAY?

Hey I was surfing through EBAY looking at wakeboards when I saw this 2002 Hyperlite Premier 142 supposedly BRAND NEW. I just recently got a 2002 Hyperlite Premier 140 DNA and I have looked at the other 2002 Premiers and I don't think there is a 142...wakeworld doesn't even have it listed under its boards. If you look at the pic it looks like either a 140 or 140 dna. I personlaly have never heard of a 2002 142 Premier and I think it was painted professionally. Look a the pic and tell me what you think. Thanks

looks like someoner painted it and then put bindings on it and removed them taking off some of the paint

this is obviously not a person who is very accurate in dispensing information. im sure it's a 140 that has, imo, not been very well painted over. it looks like a regular 02 140 that someone has simply blacked out most of the graphics.

I doubt it is brand new

"Shipping will be decided once the sale is final as shipping costs have been fluctuating."

Yep, don't ya just hate it when they charge different amounts for items that weigh different...haha

Anyway, as everyone above said it looks like the 02 bio 140 with some "killer custom art" read black spray paint.

While it is probably someone who just doesn't know the sizes correctly, don't overlook that the seller has 0 feedback left from buyers, meaning that the seller has never sold an item on ebay before.}

Stay away. That paint will likely come off on your boat interior too. Or strip the black paint off with something before you use it.

RUN AWAY! That's obviously a 2002 140 that's been painted black on the front. I don't know much about painting boards but i can say with relative confidence, that paint will come off and look like crap sooner or later.(probably sooner)

My main point though, is. That MORON didn't even disclose the fact that the board had been painted! He's trying to get over on somebody that doesn't know. That pisses me off. I wish i could leave a comment on that item.

I think you can make comments on ebay, not really sure...but I have seen them before.

I tried to see if, by chance, i could leave feedback somehow. I could only leave feedback on something i just bought.

Yea you can report him to ebay though for false ormisleading statements...I willseeif I can leave something.

I emailed him and told him the error of his ways.
