i mean technically, Lego only makes the 1x6 Technic Liftarm in size Thin. not
regular liftam width.
you have the 1x6 not-Lego piece pictured next to a 1x7 regular width Liftarm
, correct?

were you trying to buy a 1x6 regular width liftarm?

agree it isn't Lego,
seller intentionally doing it .? eh, that part might sneak through a busy seller
sorting too fast. 50/50 on that acpect.
