Yeah Randy he has made our list of crooks for other signs that he's passing it off as vintage


Thanks

Guy is pretty blatant about it. I emailed him saying that sign is repro and got this response: "Arent they all ??? Lol. Price is the same. Thanks for your interest."

I thought for sure he'd say something like as far as I know its original or something like that.

What an @#% hole. Ebays response would probably be, "why ban him, we can make $294 when some poor sucker buys it."

This was from last month he was selling a fake Texaco sign. Very sly instead of saying the sign is dated 1963 he says coded on his auction description.

It was only a three day auction, I think it just ended on its own but hard to be sure.

I could see where ebay would not want to get into authenticating materials, Im surprised his feedback isnt way worse than it is though...

Exactly the sort of a$*&%holes that are ruining this hobby. What a piece of useless trash.
