I think if everyone took the two minutes it takes to report these sellers eBay may look at it . If they see a mass amount of people and the same seller names they might take action. You see how strict the PayPal policy is on counterfeits. We might as well try. Some of these signs are getting pretty good. They will eventually kill the value of our collections and deter many people from this hobby.

What kind of pos has an attorney threaten a lawsuit. Without a signed contract I don't see what could be done. Any lawyers want to weigh in? Once the auction ends she should have enough to defend herself lol.

"Also shipping has to be carefully considered as FedEx and UPS are funny about taking rare items."
I should think that anybody having that kind of end result Money (whatever that may be), Would want to travel to Oregon (or within OR) to get the museum piece personally.

we have chatted about ending auctions early and Suzi just sent me this...She asked me to post it here.
"I just got an email from a man in Idaho, rather a man's attorney's assistant, in Idaho who has threatened to sue me if I don't sell him the sign as price he said I agreed to.... Can you get the word out to your friends about this? I cannot believe the nerve of this jerk. I can't believe there are people who would stoop to such garbage. Suzi

Suzi should save any contact that person had with her to prove she didn't come upon any sale agreement with said person instead of deleting them in anger.

Emailed her to support her and got back some emails. I think that there will be alot of support from others, and will be interesting whomever or what ever comes of this. Money just changes so many things. Lets hope for the best for her.

Judge Judy says "If you need to prove it in court, GET IT IN WRITING". A verbal agreement is a wasted breath.
