122324574842 In my opinion it's a fake. Beautiful Copy, however selling for toooo much $.


I'm collecting all types of porcelain signs but prefer Mobil Oil.

Someone paid $910 for that sign. That's one heck of a whallop if the thing is a fake.

I questioned it also and messaged the seller for the size which they said 30".

And then they replied "Buyer hasn't paid yet either so I'd take any higher offer. IDC bot a review I'm about making money" so this should tell you what kind of new seller your dealing with!!!

LMAO


Thanks

I agree, fake sign. Here's a pic of it, for future reference.

You go to ebay and type in "porcelain sign" and 99 out of 100 are garbage! Even all this stuff with all the different languages on them, who buy this *****?? I just can't believe there is such a market for this junk that there is so much of it on there!
Even something as common as a fake Mobil sign. How many people want a Mobil sign that there is market enough to produce so many of these darn things! It just amazes me!!

If I was Trump I would be planning a commando raid on these sign factory's in India and taking these people out for the destruction of American history!!!

I wondered this myself. It could be they have shill bidders and they are buying their own fake signs themselves. I haven't done the math but they could still make out buying every 3 out of 5 signs back. Just a thought....
