Just talked to the fellow with this one 300959001169
He seemed surprised and asked me why no one else has called him or messaged him, since his number is listed.
He seemed very objective and was easy to talk to.
Some of you others should give him a call.
I told him to come to Old Gas.com and read about these fakes.
Hope he shows up. He has 6 days before his listing ends
Sounds like he got hooked for $1200 when he bought it on ebay??
His phone number is--208-713-6650

I just talked with him again as he called me. He's still not convinced as he feels there should be more contact with him if it was indeed a phony.
He said he contacted ebay and they showed no record of anyone reporting it? Told him that it was reported by at least 4 people but don't know how their system works??
Give him a call if you have a couple minutes.

Kevin, I just talked to the guy... And he is not a happy camper...
He feels that it is a "plot" against him and the Pegasus is real...
So maybe it is not a good idea for Member's to call this "Gentleman"? .... LOL

Well, surprise--surprise--surprise!!!
This ebay sellers true colors have come out!
After being contacted by 3 or 4 people, he has turned into an irate, berated underdog that is being picked on by people with some sort of agenda to prevent him from selling something that he knows is correct and original!
He has turned to using foul language and shouting to try and turn the opposition away and somehow rescue his known fake.
He now knows that he is committing fraud but refuses to accept the fact and feels obscenities and loud voice will repel the invaders of his fake little ebay sale!
SAD, how little it takes to bring out the true colors of those that profess to steal from the public!

I reported and saved a life.
Ok so I asked him if it was original or a repro. He said the following in answer,
Dear dpizzo11,
"it looks good to me, but that is my opinion. look at pictures and use your own judgement. hope that helps. Thanks".

Keep that seller on watch as he will try to list Again on ebay.
Depending on how long ago he bought the sign, he may still have time to file a PayPal Complaint & receive a FULL REFUND.

Bet you, he doesn't like that sign today as much as he did yesterday. Better that he loses $1400.00 then someone else loses $3000.00.
I doubt he's the kind to cut it into pieces and throw it out. Sign will resurface and be a problem again.

Better report it now before someone snaps up the buy now price. I did. Stated it was a relist of previously pulled item. Not sure if that will help
