Fakes?

[cee-dee]

Usually the old saying "If it seems too good to be true, it usually is" is indicated by the price but that didn't apply in this case:-

How would an "ordinary" person spot one of those?

I love eBay's response in that link...." eBay have no record of being warning about this issue ". Yeh right.......they've got no record either , no doubt , about the scores of times I've reported "Fakes" being sold, involving items I collect and have fairly extensive knowledge about.  It's just a two bit market, with decent stuff floating around among the "Fakes" & " Junk".........you've just got to be able to sort out which is which, if you can't.......my advice is don't use it.
