WOW! I guess fraud is everywhere and it can't be stopped it's just programmed into some peoples minds at a young age. I am currently dealing with a fraud/thief at my job. A co-worker who likes to upsell automotive repairs and services on customer vehicles that don't need to be done. I have no tolerance for thieves and frauds. It's just wrong, maybe someday these people will meet Karma or a higher power.

Love the description:::

"Indian Motorcycles Porcelain Sign, I don't know what yr it is from, seems fairly old 12" x 8"

but they are playing on the stupidity of the buyers and not advertising it as vintage or original!!


Thanks

I feel for the next generation that is being raised by these crooks. Kids that are raised to believe it's okay to lie, cheat and commit frauds in the pursuit of profit.

Yes indeed!! The idea of hard work and the feeling of payoff/achieivement is lost today.

"Since 1901" cause they would have been bragging about being in business for 10-20 years. The seller probably thinks this is 1920's-30's i'm assuming.

I can see a day when someone forward thinking in what was our "hobby" opens a grading house to authenticate signs . Like baseball cards , guns etc .
