You know what "They" say......if it seems to good to be true, it probably is.

The real one ended up in San Diego! I would have been really mad if that on showed up though. You shouldn't have a problem getting your money back on that, one good thing about eBay.
Looking for Johnson anything and Ca gas signs and ?

I was telling DB the other day that although there is a lot to complain about Ebay if you are a seller, I'm sure glad there are protection plans in place now for the buyers. Years ago before buyer's protection, I was in a similar situation with a $700 piece of Roseville pottery. The vase I received was definitely NOT the piece shown in the auction. When brought to the seller's attention, he added insult to injury by accusing me of a "bait and switch" tactic. Needless to say I still have that $700 POS vase to remind me of the "old days" of buying at your own risk, and hoping if something was wrong you had an HONEST understanding seller to deal with!

that's some ugly @#$#, outright theft and a word of advice, no one should contact this seller until Jim get's his money back, don't want to tip anyone off or give them ideas. see previous comments

. Holes are in the black portion on the sign pictured in selling ad ,so sign is authentic I assume , and the sign one will receive if you purchased will have the mounting holes in the red border being a fake ? That is pretty sad ....... makes one more even appreciative of Jims free web site . But when they pull scams like this they must be getting desperate . Looks like the e bay crusaders would tar and feather them once they are found guilty of such a outright deceptive case. ...They should.
