This hobby suffers enough from fraud. How this was not shot down instantly on THIS BOARD..I cannot understand. How would you feel if some local shop owner was shown some of the early posts and bought them?
The Hobby is supposed to be fun and getting clipped is the exact opposite of fun. At least it is here on exit 132 on the NJ parkway.
These were blurry online photos posted by some anonymous new member. Having an item in hand is much different.

If someone has a hobby shop, they should either have the skill/experience to authenticate an incoming item or refrain from buying it.

As for not shooting this down right away, perhaps we're trying to not be the high-horse riding butt-hurt snowflakes Bigfoot accused us of being.
