Do you have any reason to believe the '79 cello case has has been tampered with? If not, it's his case and he can ask whatever ridiculous price he wants, but I don't think he's going to find a sucker to pay that amount.
Edited to add: It took some research, but I found the thread on CU...

I would assume that most people in the market for this case already know Paul's saga. I'll admit I am not a fan of Paul due to some of his antics and actions, but with that said:

1. Paul has never ripped someone off, himself, that I know of.
2. The 79' case is legit.
3. People can ask whatever price they please for something they own. He'll either get that price or he won't.

It is annoying that Paul has forever refused to address the fact he sold that lot without marking the packs and it is evident from his past that he lacks certain social skills, but considering this post is in response to his BST offering here I would safe guessing that if a 79' cello case is worth $20k+ to you; a 79' cello case is what you will recieve.

I've never ripped people off but if I was a scumbag I'm sure people wouldn't deal with me on principle.

That's a fair opinion, but I don't believe it is right to torpedo someone's sale because that person isn't well liked. This thread is clearly in response his his sealed case in the B/S/T. The only pertinent information would be evidence that a buyer would not securely recieve what they are expecting, in which case there isn't a lot of evidence to prove that. I don't disagree with your assessment of Paul, I don't like him personally either, but my opinion of him personally does not revoke his right to make a sale unless I have reason to think a buyer would get ripped off.

Sean, why wouldn't you just crop out Stown's tabs instead of blacking them out?

Cool thread.

Well said Baez!! Paul got me a nice 2 week vacation on the CU Board for pointing out that he sells empty wax packs with the original gum & questioning why anyone would pay $20K plus for the 79 case that he is trying to sell. Definitely not a fan.
