Thanks for adding that link a couple of people have been questioning the die-cut standard. Old or New ? Well you can see two he sold. One for over $400 pretty good profit on a $20 sign. I don't know why ebay lets him keep listing. Yes the Hancock is phony. Everything he sells is phony. The completed list is like a catalog for reproduction signs. Do you have to be a member just to read posts? Can he come to the site and read the threads without posting or being a member?

I'm assuming these are mostly fake. Makes a hell of a living ! Better than robbing a bank, you don't go to jail for this.

You have to be a member post. So we need to watch what were writing !!!

I agree here with Doug on this one. Everyone can see what is posted, so we need to watch putting details on what is wrong with the signs. I have seen a few that are scary lately. Someone is going to wind up with a real expensive repop soon i am afraid.
Google translator is good enough for the repoppers overseas to make out what we say on here. Also there is a ton of repops being made in the states!
Also Ed, I like that the truth is posted on here and this site is not here to work one over on somebody.
The truth is that repops are getting dangerous for collectors.

Hahaha you got to love what the seller added to the posting:
"I have had a lot of interest in this sign. I will not end early or sell to an "oldgas" member for $3000. If you wish to place those bids and retract them, yes. ebay watches what everyone does. That website has gone way down hill with its shabby members. Thanks for the emails and good laughs. "

I asked about nonmembers reading the threads because I want to refer buyers with questions on repops to oldgas and I want to tell them they can read about signs without being members. I don't really care if they like the comments or not if the truth hurts so be it. thanks

Last year I Called out an ebay seller [that happened to be a member], BUT he had moved [& didn't change location under user name], also changed his ebay seller ID. I had no idea [but didn't matter]. WELL he CRIED FOUL to Mods that I was picking on him, Again! My post was Removed [Oh Well]. The TRUTH DOES HURT [some].
