If you inform the seller that the listing is considered fraudulent, they will usually "correct" and revise the auction. If not, notify eBay, and let them deal with it. It is the responsibility of the seller to know the items they are selling. If they do not know, then they need to list it accordingly with vague information, and not using padded descriptions.

I'm sure MOST of these fraudulent sellers know what it is, but want to get more search results by using certain non-accurate keywords and tags. The keyword "Vintage" is a prime example of an abused word in ebay auctions. Notify the sellers, and then notify ebay that the auction is fraudulent and misleading. Sellers know better, and should be reprimanded by eBay for falsely advertising and misrepresenting products. eBusive auctions suck and crowd out the legitimate, accurately described items!
