What the hell eBay?

Subaru offers this cute little thing to people who purchase their vehicles. They’re called badges of ownership and they’re free.

You buy a car, you go to their site, punch in your VIN # as proof and choose. I did this when I bought Ethel, she was my first. So now that I have Pearl, she needed some badges as well.

The website says you can order as many as you like, but in actuality I was limited to 6. Since one of them was the medallion that identifies how many Subarus you’ve owned.. I felt gypped.

Enter eBay, where I figured someone must be selling a few.

Remember, they’re free… so I figured I could pick up 3 or 4 more for a couple of bucks.

And yes, they had them… even the wine and cheese badge I especially wanted.

‘Free’ suddenly felt anything but.

Rare… and discontinued.

Please.

      1. Call Subaru and tell them you were able to order 6 because the one was an automatic or should have been. Might mention how much they go for on Ebay… I’d also check Etsy, they tend to be cheaper

  3. The problem with ebay is that you know what people are asking for something but you don’t know how much people have actually paid for them. I was amazed at the prices being asked for old telephones and typewriters. If there were any clue that I could get that for them, I’d list them now.
