Mark,

My reference to COAs was not intended to infer that they would be real if they had a COA. I was simply stating that items of that value without COAs is BAD. Very bad sign indeed for starters. Anyone who has been around the hobby long enough knows the extensive list of bad COAs and their ramifications.
I’m pretty sure everyone on here (except maybe the original poster) already knows exactly what you said but I guess for everyones’s interest it’s not a bad thing to point out from time to time.
When you are reputable and honest and if you have good items, no COA is needed I agree.

Peace, Mike
