It's the same exact sign advertologist posted, just a different seller this time around. Therefore different background. Clear as mud?

I am a little worried about the seller of this sign. If you look at all his current auctions, he is selling a lot of the SAME stuff he had on ebay about 2 months ago. Lion curb sign, Lion gasoline single lens, polly can, etc...... I saw about 30 items in his listing that he "sold" 2 months ago.. Looks like the 99 cent no reserve means "shill" city.......

Roger--I know the seller, so I contacted him today on this issue. He explained that with the large type auctions that he has been running on ebay, there is a certain percentage of sales that never get completed by the buyers for a lot of reasons. Mostly buyers remorse. He indicated that he doesn't deal with those individuals at all, as he doesn't have the time, and instead, just relists the item for one of his next sales. He insists there is never any schill bidding in his auctions and realizes that he loses on some items, but just shoots for the average.
He buys all over the US, and frequently buys from some of the members on this site. I have bought from him several times, and he always handled every sale, very professionally. He is a very young guy that has the resources to do this type of thing, and he seems able to make it work so far.
I believe you can buy from one of his auctions without any worries of anything shady going on.

I can't comment about shill bidding as I do not know. I can say that I have purchased from them and have received the items, well packaged and received in good time.
Sell me your Gilmore Oil Co. stuff...

I have bought several things from him so far and I'm very happy with the transactions. Would and probably will do so again. Mitch

Maybe I jumped to soon, I will give the benefit to anyone. I just remember the lion curb sign I thought went way to cheap last time. Whoever bought it should have followed through with the transaction, it was a deal. My bad, ignore me stupid self. I am sure he is OK>.. Especially if all yall vouch for him.
