Now that is funny! And just like re-built ladies re-built Planks are not cheap...LOL

[wonkaticket]

Paul here are the 2 re-built Planks floating that are disclosed...

The SGC one is the one that was up for sale when you got your Plank..the one in REA is another...



There was this 150 that sold not long ago...but the bottom edge looked funny.

Unless the car in question is a LeBaron, then I'd rather have one from the Jon Voight collection.

Thanks for the disclosures all. I'm a guy who firmly believes in transparency. I've dealt with the realities that some of my $1000+ purchases were fakes--it sucks, but I prefer that I take the hit than try dump that junk to someone else.

I'm no Goldman Sachs.

Ted,
great cars,cards, and wife!!!
Re: Cars----i recently sold my '63 chevy as i'm giving up on all 'shinies'
Re: Cards---i'm fine with an altered/rebuilt as long as it's disclosed and i
need it for my collection.
Re: Wife----about to celebrate 26 years of happily married!!

Darren,
i was shocked and distressed to see that you were ripped off re: some big dollar items. if it can happen to as astute a collector as you, it must be more
rampant than i would've guessed. sorry to hear it, ole friend.

best,
barry

Thanks, I will relay your greetings to Charlotte......and, my best wishes to Margaret and you for your forthcoming
26th Anniversary.

Regarding your......" Thanks for the disclosures all. I'm a guy who firmly believes in transparency. "

I posted this subject matter expressly for just what you said. The more information we have, the better equipped
we are to avoid being "ripped-off". Ten years ago when these T206 re-fronted fakes were in circulation, we did not
have the knowledge we have today. It's sad, though, to read that one (or two) here have objected to this thread.

I'm very sorry to hear of your experiences. If you don't mind, would you care to share some details of this ?

Barry- next week is my 25th! One year older, one more year married.

[ethicsprof]

We do have a lot in common, ole friend.
By the way, Saw Palmetto,pygeum, and beta sitosterol combo does wonders with what my Emory bud, Jeff L,
was teasing you about!! Being a year older than you, i should know.
I'm sure that our resident doc(Darren) who knows his alternative medicine would agree.
Good luck buying the expensive 25th anniv. present,Barry S.
Margaret loved her diamond!
all the best,
barry

[barrysloate]

I used to take saw palmetto but I didn't notice any change...and no expensive anniversary gift forthcoming. It will be low key.

Ted-looks like you have your own "super prints"!
