That wud be exactly what I wud do if ebay allowed me to know who it was. This post makes you just as much of an idiot!

If I am missing something and you know exactly how to contact him, then please clue me in and I will apologize and write him directly!

You act like an idiot and it's everyone else's fault. Maybe you should look in the mirror asshole.

Soooo... you still didn't answer the question. What was the point of the post? Or more appropriately, what was the point of the thread title? If not to show your superiority and/or condescending attitude, then what exactly?

Good lord! the point was hopefully by the blanked out name and the feedback rating someone may recognize him and save him!

WOW! come on now, I am trying to save someone from a bad purchase!

WTF

Horsesh!t! Your point is in the title of the thread. Usually, in most social circles, people don't start off trying to "save" someone by calling them an idiot.

I bought 3 of these fakes a few months ago at a local auction and almost got smoked but thanks to my credit card company, I was saved.

Does that make me superior???

Yes exactly, I was 3 times the idiot, actually a little worse as I had a quick chance to see them and had to act fast. So yes, I was far more of an idiot than this guy. No question.

How can you tell the one on ebay is fake? And how did you get fooled? Was it an internet auction or did you buy them at auction?

[packs]

We are all aware of the old trope: it's not what you said it's how you said it. I don't think it's too hard to see how your post was insulting.

Yes live in person auction, I got there late (my fault) couldn't review til right before they went up. They looked old, soaked in coffee and had an old piece of cardboard glued to the back, that is what got me. I should have brought the real one I have from B&L auctions that I won and I would have seen that mine was about an inch taller.

These were exact cut outs from the Fritsch reprint set on ebay (I bought 1 to compare) and someone really put some time into them.. When I saw the one on ebay, I knew it was from the same stock as it had the old paper removed from the back. dan

This thread went wrong in a hurry.

If taking Dan at his word, he is trying to help the guy. Assume Dan stating the truth.

Since it seems like the way it was stated does not sound like he is trying to help, methinks he may want to simply state in a different way next time.
