If you would please notice the careful wording of the above-mantioned auction. You will see that the 'seller' is VERY careful not to state that the item is actually old.
Furthermore - the seller states "I try my best to describe the condition, authenticity or age of an item, I do not guarantee it!"Legal mumbo-jumbe to keep the auction 'legal' from an e-Bay standpoint. And just enough to keep from being sued for Fraud.
You will also note that the seller does not describe the authenticity or age or the items in question at all. Again, to keep his A$$ out of court.
As I stated in a previous post - if anyone wants one of these, I can get you one at the spring Peotone show for about $20.00 to $25.00.
And it will be a guarenteed reproduction! LOL
I do believe I will add this fine gentleman to my 'Ignore Member' list so I don't have to see anymore of his rantings in the future.
Later . . .
