I have to say again it is the buyers of these badges that perpetuate a problem. You will always have the "scalpers" but it's the actions of a person such as this owner of the pacblue SSR that makes the problem. And we busted his ass...so he essentionally threw that money away. Stop the demand and they go away to something else.
I wouldm't buy one damn thing from these sellers and he is playing you.

No matter how you slice it, it still looks like this was an attempt at fraud. This is at least the second time someone attempted to pass off a truck as a FPR, and it will likely happen again. It wouldn't happen if GM had been able to keep a handle on resale of these badges. I believe the execs at GM are lookig into how these badges got into the hands of resellers.
The unfortunate thing is that someone who isn't on this website, getting some knowledge about SSRs or puts blind trust into the seller, is going to get burned.
I never received a reply to my offer to purchase one of the badges. PM me with a price if you don't want to reveal it here.
