I did to the seller, but he was too busy counting his money too look and let the bidders know, lol.

I'm surprised it took four replies to notice the arrows noting what is wrong!

This guy is the same one that has been selling the Musgo pump signs. I questioned him about one of those and told him it was something that Gas Pump Heaven and others were selling every day. He informed me that it was none of my business.

I sent a second email and told him that it probably wasn't, but I just hated to see anyone be deceived the way he was doing it. No reply that time...Dale

I have to say it.. This is just as much the buyers fault. The buyer needs to be aware of what he/she is buying. Even if the seller is trying to fool you, and blatently lying, you (the buyer) NEED to do your homework. You can't take anything for granted nowadays.

I'm not defending this guy, he now knows it's a repop and has a responsibility to his customers. But.....he says in his listing "you decide" and in the rectangular block above his his description under original he places question marks.

I guess my point is that you have 8+ bidders going crazy over a $20.00 sign that has obvious question marks about it. Sometimes you've got to place some responsibility on the buyer.

I didn't check to see what the feedback scores were until just now. I wrongly figured that the bidders were all new to ebay. Boy, was I wrong. LOL. I agree with the sentiments regarding both the seller and the bidders/buyer.

Oh of course the seller is in the wrong. I agree totally. Everything he said in his descreption sounds a bit shady. I just feel buyers should educate themselves before spending hundreds or even thousands of dollars on items. Im lucky, ive grown up in this hobby. Im only 21 and I feel I have a pretty darn good grasp on what is real and what is fake. Sometimes i just wonder how someone can buy an item that is that blatently repo. We all hate seeing someone getting screwed.
