Here's one I sent a note to last night and explained why it was a fake and to compare it to the Matthew's one he referenced to in his add. Didn't hear anything from him and I see it was still on tonight. 261293695482 Mitch

How about putting pictures of the suspect sign up with pictures of the Real McCoy, so we can see the discrepancies.
I don't have one but I'm in the market and would hate to get burned!

On this one all you have to do is to look at the back of the sign.

The graphics on the DOG is a dead giveaway, IMO!

I have a large grease can ... The "DOG" is a beauty!

Here's a picture of my Hi-Power and the picture from the listing of the fake.

Original has grommets. Like already mentioned dog is a giveaway. Font for the letters is wrong, "S" in HUSKY is the most pronounced.

The dog on the fake sign matches the seller; "An ugly, short, fat, $%^ker"!

Kevin,
I will shoot you some pics of a real deal when I get home. The differences will be obvious.

Heres Jacobs Tri-Power to look at and compare too. Pretty obvious again!

Sorry about the wrong number. I received a message from him today stating he couldn't see the differences. I messaged him back and pointed out the H, U, S and K were different. Also the hypen wasn't centered and the lack of grommets. I have the Husky diesel plate on my watch list so I gave him that number so he could compare. We'll see what he has to say. That fake has been discused on here before. Mitch

Something must have worked or he got a offer he couldn't refuse I see it was gone tonight. Mitch
