The one in the Kyle Moore sale brought $38,000 before the buyers premium and taxes! Totally different condition, of course!
Posted By: BryceG Re: "town crier" - Sun Nov 22 2015 03:42 PM
dont judge it by Randy's photo... its completely gone. that graphic area is just a photo reprint that is sitting on top of the actual sign. Here's the actual sign... (when it first popped up, I almost did a buy it now thinking thats what it looked like!... thank god I looked at the other pics firtst, lol)

looks like someone bought it though...

Something seems fishy with that price box. Look at these completed listings and make your judgement... I dont know why I cant make a link but maybe if you copy and paste this in your address bar it will work? http://www.ebay.com/sch/i.html?_nkw=visible+price+box&_in_kw=1&_ex_kw=&_sacat=0&LH_Complete=1&_udlo=&_udhi=&_samilow=&_samihi=&_sadis=15&_stpos=44147&_sargn=-1%26saslc%3D1&_salic=1&_sop=12&_dmd=1&_ipg=50

This one looks like the exact same one he sold December 14th for $275 . Maybe he had two of them and using the same picture.

Do they reproduce these with the Texaco letters on them ?
Posted By: 63shelby Re: "town crier" - Mon Dec 21 2015 12:07 AM
No known reproductions with the raised letters like that...buyer backed out of the deal on both pricers this seller had was what I was told. No additional (mounting) hardware comes with it.

i dont think so, it says the listing was ended because the item is sold. basically that allows ebay to charge him final value fees at what he ended it at.

on a side note, if anyone comes across one of these, i still want one and am still willing to pay a fair price

Posted By: BryceG Re: "town crier" - Tue Aug 16 2016 04:18 PM
i dont mind the posting so much, its the back-door offers that result in the items being pulled off ebay that is frustrating.
Posted By: K W FRITH Re: "town crier" - Wed Aug 17 2016 12:33 AM
Sorry Bryce, but I think you are wrong on this one! You think that Randys posts add to the back door offers? Generally, I have seen most of the items he posts, except for items from catagories I don't watch, and then I find the posts educational. If an exceptional item pops up that you are interested in, you have the same back door as the other ebay members, so help yourself!
With the millions of people watching ebay, I can't believe that even one of Randys posts ever added to the price, or set up a back door Johnny that wasn't already there.
I mostly watch ebay to keep up with public trends and pricing, and occasionaly I bid on something, but I am there mostly for the daily schooling.
I for one, am very happy that Randy brings an occasional rare item to the front, in that we may all enjoy watching the ensuing bidding. I even like to add an item every now and then myself!
I seriously doubt that you have ever missed out on anything because of one of Randys posts! Please keep up with the "town Crier" and I will do my best to help out at times.

I hope you take my criticism for what it is--just an opinion-- and don't take offense from it.
Posted By: BryceG Re: "town crier" - Wed Aug 17 2016 12:41 AM
Yes, I think his posts add to backdoor offers. It's not limited to this though, posting auctions after they've ended as well. Remember what happened when someone posted that paragon lollipop sign that showed up on eBay? Yeah, lots and lots of backdoor offers that eventually came at the cost of the original buyer.
Posted By: BryceG Re: "town crier" - Wed Aug 17 2016 12:45 AM
And no offense taken at all... I can appreciate the value this thread adds for some people. But for me, it's done more harm than good... but it sounds like I'm in the minority. So my little rant is over, lol

Posted By: Signs&Neons Re: "town crier" - Thu Aug 18 2016 02:26 PM
I'm with Bryce on this one. Posting something a week or two after it has ended as an FYI is fine. The buyer should safely have his item and thus eliminate concerns about someone trying to back door and offer more than it "sold" for.

In my opinion, if you aren't interested in an item - let those who are seek it out and have fun trying to buy it. As Bryce mentioned, I doubt Randy is posting items that he is trying to buy before they end smile. It's not getting out in the truck and driving the back roads, but it is still fun to find a listing on ebay that you hope may be falling through the cracks so to speak. Not a big deal and everyone sees it differently, but the thrill is in the hunt and this is kind of like going to a pheasant farm for the lazy hunters - LOL.
Posted By: SourSam Re: "town crier" - Fri Aug 19 2016 07:05 PM
Making "back-door deals" (that sounds dirty, heh) after an auction has ended on eBay is low in my opinion. However, up until a deal is consummated (heh) by the gavel hitting the pedestal, it is all open market principles. Meaning, if, through an alternate venue, the seller finds someone willing to pay more, then so be it. The onus is on the seller to determine in which market (either an anonymous auction site or message forum) he/she would like to participate. I have no issue with sellers ending auctions early or sellers on this website opting to ignore offers from fellow members and opting for an auction site. Again, the only time I have an issue is when there is a meeting of minds and we have one of the parties reneg.

Same Can for sure! In fact, he accepted best offer on it for $1500, and the strange part is, that I sent him pictures of several different possibles for trade, and he didn't even get back to me with a response, and didn't so much as let me know he listed it?

Sorry, just my sick sense of humor, I dont think its a wrap either, killer can. It wouldnt surprise me though with the repo situation what it is. I think there are both solder seam and crimp seam versions of this quart, but otherwise I think they are the same. Maybe a quart expert can chime in.

Posted By: BryceG Re: "town crier" - Thu Nov 02 2017 11:21 PM
The dot matrix looking colors, the blue color itself seems off, the text of 'one us quart' was the first thing I noticed. Also, all tiopets I have had included periods between letters US. Also no good pictures of the seam. And not a seller with other cans. Whole thing looks funky to me, but I've been wrong before

I guess ? Couple of buttons sewed on and a hat pin. Does it make a real Texaco item?
Seller ebay name is Trash or Treasures. I'm on the fence which it is.
Its for sure a Marine hat.

IMHO this is the best looking shell sign out there! You did good, have them cut the pole off and add a new one when u get it if thats how ur going to display it! Its easy to ship w/o the pole....... Poles are a stop at the plumbing shop or a rusty one almost any where!

Based on prior auction sales this sign wasn't that great of a deal was it or am I missing something?
Posted By: BryceG Re: "town crier" - Sun Dec 08 2019 09:16 PM
It was a good deal, if anyone else has one in that price range, I'm your guy!

On a side note, it's an interesting variation. All 36" versions that I have seen only have neon around the car... Cause the border normally goes around the can on the 36" versions, so no insulators within the sign like this one

That one is the same as what I'm used to seeing... Notice the lack of insulators for the border... That's cause its border neon would of originally gone around the perimeter of the can, not on top of the sign like it shows... But most people redo them that way

Bryce, pictured is my united motors with insulators & can exactly the same as sign of subject - (Made too be the original single sided version)
I have seen a lot more of the double version with the neon ring around the can with the can being a lot thicker..



https://auctions.morphyauctions.com/mobile/LotDetail.aspx?inventoryid=279222[/quote]

Michael, the 3690. sign is from a 2 year old auction as this sign in auction is part of a 2 sided sign like Bryce mentions with the outer neon ring going around the can so this sign has been slightly altered from its original purpose

Steve, I love ya man, but you are gonna HAVE to get over the prices of this stuff! I've seen you miss out on a bunch of cool stuff because it was "too expensive". Break that piggy bank and live a little buddy! You regret the stuff you passed on a lot more than the stuff you paid a little too much for. The prices will probably catch up in a few years anyhow.

Ah....the 'ol "oooooops, I forgot a zero" trick....yeah right......
I feel for you Bryce, it's certainly happened to me on Ebay before. Most memorably when a seller listed Transcontinental Marathon lenses for $125 each choice BIN. He had one orange and green runner lens and a bunch of Multipower lenses. Needless to say my BIN for the one runner lens was cancelled within a short time and I was told his kid broke the whole pile of them. Yeah right.....I left negative feedback as I knew it was all BS.
Posted By: BryceG Re: "town crier" - Wed Aug 12 2020 09:51 PM
It's not a big deal. It's shady on the seller's part, but it's just pathetic on the part of the people that do the backdoor offering. They must live their lives in constant jealousy.

Posted By: BrianH Re: "town crier" - Wed Aug 12 2020 11:31 PM
Bryce, I got a few guesses on who did the backdoor deal. He's pretty infamous for doing this on eBay with oil cans. You probably know who I'm talking about. I won't touch anything he sells on FB for just this reason.

Hopefully you don't believe that kitchen clock with a Shell decal applied to the face is an original item? Fantasy junk that scumbag sellers laugh all the way to the bank with!! Look at the seller's completed items, all similar kitchen clocks with tacky decals applied and selling for 10X's or more what the clock should bring as a collectible item. Sickening......

It presents decently, but I kept looking at the pics cause it just looks "off". Is it because it was a cut up flat that was put back together and re-lidded and there gaps and other issues at the seams?

What do you see in the grommets that are not correct?

Yep, definitely a fake sign. I notified the seller his sign was fake and that I know it for a fact, I have an original with the ring and pole in my collection, plus, most all reproduction porcelain sign have a white first layer of porcelain applied prior to any top colors to complete the finished sign. this is very noticeable at and around chipped areas on the sign. Not to mention there could be blemishes/pitting or imperfections in the finish, you may even think it was shot with a pellet or BB gun, but It's a dead give away. I did reach out to the seller and mentioned to him that he should change his listing and notify any bidders that it was a reproduction. He did responded, only by sending me a sad face emoji, yet he made no changes to his listing.

Over the years, this has been discussed many times here, yet as time goes on, this problem has become more prolific than ever! with more and more signs showing up with many more sellers not telling the truth and basically, selling their soles to make a few bucks. It's super frustrating to see unknowledgeable people get ripped off. I know what those buyers are going to feel like, once they discover they had been ripped off for $3000.00.

Buyer beware!
