Wow, you have to fess up all your information just to get a price. My price? Your price? His/her price?

Yeah it seems very sketchy! I inquired on this Phillips 66 curb sign (Via Telephone) waiting to hear back on pricing. I can bet he's scouring eBay at the moment looking to put a "value" on it! I don't know if I should even open a can of worms or break the news he's got a lot of repops that are marked in the descriptions as real.

Anyone notice a problem with the caption under the gas station picture?

The Mobil station that is labeled as a Sinclair station! That is just perfect! Says it all.

This one?
Note: We Do Not Manufacture or Purchase Reproduction Signs (No Fakes) For Resale. Most of these antique signs have never been for sale. Most were found in private collections held for many years prior to us offering them for sale. No antiques are doctored or upgraded to appear better than they actually are. -- We guarantee your satisfaction. -- Many of these vintage signs are acquired when we do Man Caves designed for professional collectors (some are hoarders according to their wives) who have collected some excess duplications

This guy is a fraud he told me on the phone he basically sells "pre-fab mancaves" to rich guys and all his decorations and signs are "100% original" LOL.

I see he has been in town- he's got my old dart scoreboard,
should have items priced without calling- orig. mixed with
repo's- buyer beware... cool

I am usually working when he is open. I would like to see what he has. I sounds like alot of his items that were real are "sold". I really wanted to work a deal on his Phillips curb sign but we were pretty far off when we told me he sold it for $1700. I mean the condition wouldn't even bring $350!
