Re: E-bay
 

Hello Ed,

that's why we have to inform all potential buyers before they pour their
money down the drain.
I've attached a very bad example of a fake...

Re: E-bay
 

But Ed is also right.

Re: E-bay
 

Hi Jan, yes, that's right.
I only wanted to give this example to all interested people here.
It's just a shame that some people at ebay try to do business in this way.
If you want you can find some more of these guys. I know collectors
who are not interested any more in their hobby because of their bad
experiences with fakes and reproduction photos. I don't want to know
how many collectors own copies instead of original photos...
It's true that not every ebay user knows which photo is original,
which is coloured and so on. But if we (and we also don't know every
photo which may be published or is still existing somewhere... you
know what I mean) find some fakes or something like that it's a good
possibility to post it here.

Re: E-bay
 

This message board represents some of the potential buyers, but not all. Eeryone else is not like you. Some people do not know this place exists.

Perhaps a list of dishonest eBay sellers should be posted somewhere here for reference. But I still think the best solution is to contact eBay and report the seller.

It is sometimes difficult for honest people to believe or understand that other people could be so dishonest.

Three new combat reports. How do these look to experienced eyes?

Hello Ed, hello Nick,

first I think your suggestion is very interesting, it may be very helpful.
Ebay is not interested in such reports because the sellers disguise their
discriptions mostly. And Ebay makes some money too with such business.
But I could offer to help looking for dishonest ebay sellers in Germany
because I can read German language. You remember the discussion about
ebay seller mei-dn?

Nick, I could not help in your case because I don't know the English
Combat Reports and documents. I hope someone can help here???
