A Trove of eBay Comedy Gubbins

[BrodieBartfast]

Alas some people don't want to know, while looking for something genuine at the Plac Nowy flea market in Krakow, i noticed an American guy showing great interest is an over the top fake SS soldbuch, the type covered in deaths heads, swastikas and runic regimental insignia. I had a quiet word with the guy while the stall holder was dealing with a customer, i pointed out that it was an utter fake and the guy thanked me and walked away, 5 minutes later i saw him return to the stall and buy the bloody thing!!! 400 zlotys was the asking price so that was about £80 flushed down the toilet!...

An update: Several of this individual's auctions are about to expire, each with dozens of bidders fighting over this ridiculous fantasy nonsense.
I feel that I simply cannot stand by and watch what is essentially blatant fraud. Knowing that this person knows full well what they're doing makes it even worse. With most fakers, the source is ambiguous. They flood their tat out into the market and remain safely anonymous. But in this case, the gent is crapping in his own nest.
There must be something that can be done to stop this.

It's very frustrating but the people who run ebay don't give a sh*t, i've reported lots of dodgy sellers and never had a reply!...

Knowledge is our only weapon against them, then. If only more of these bidders had heard of WRF!
Still, it absolutely astounds me how any of them can convince themselves that what they're looking at are genuine pieces.

Ebay is a Militaria theatre of the Lazy and Stupid all of who are very deserving in winning the prize of the hunt.

Entertainment all of which are Funny , Sad and Pathetic ...sorry to be so terse ..but an ounce of effort on the key board by typing....
" Search for" ..could save these people $$$ Thousands !!

Why is this such a stumbling block ?? .....or is everything they own just junk?

You can't force knowledge onto those who don't seek it.

If Fake Junk didn't sell, they'd stop making it.
