RE: this guys incredible - 12/17/2007 4:31:48 PM    kungfufighter   Posts: 174 Joined: 2/18/2005 Status: offline Are you insinuating that the seller is not offering a GENUINE NAVAL BOARDING WEAPON?!  Why the nerve of you.  Don't let him catch wind of your thinking - he may send one of his "private investigators" after you.  Perhaps with a little more time in the trenches you will learn the error of your ways and embrace THE TRUTH (in reply to lobeycat) Post #: 2

I mean, on and on it goes. It's one thing to sell an item you know nothing more about than what the guy that sold it to you told you. <(?) It's a total con when you put so much info up there that the average new colletor says to themselves well that's sounds reasonable, hell I'm gonna get it. I'd love to buy one, fly to his house and smash him in the face with it and say "see that's what these people feel like when they find out it a piece of mexican garbage"... but that's me. _____________________________ http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RD8XDgVe2EU long lost recipe (in reply to bottlenutboy) Post #: 5

RE: this guys incredible - 12/18/2007 4:08:26 PM    cc6pack   Posts: 542 Joined: 7/12/2003 From: Mableton, Ga. Status: offline I've been emailing  druggistnut (Bill) about this seller. I just emailed a manager at ebay. Below is my email to him and his reply, this was all done with the last hour. I've deleted everything but the body of the emails. If anyone wants to see them in total contact me. My email to ebay Xxx Hi I got your email from alinchitown  from the sports board. I collect antique bottles along with  other stuff.  A bunch of us have been following the seller sirmarkw on an antiques bottle board.  He has been selling these fake Naval Boarding Weapons, Deck Sweepers for over a year.  He has sold tens to hundreds of these things.  At first he said he only had 3 or 4 now he admits to 40 or 50. He also claimed they came from a federally protected area off Rhode Island. Now he's buying them from auctions, or finding them diving.  There are many people on the antiques board that are more knowledgeable about these than me.  I also posted one of his closed auctions on the Antiques board on ebay a week or so ago. Not only are the bottles bad so are some of his other items as well. I can forward the discussions if you would like to see them. Any help would be greatly appreciated.  Thanks Dennis Clack  His reply  Thanks for the email Dennis -  Let me see what I can do - I appreciate you reporting this stuff in.  Even though I'm not the best person here at eBay - I still care - and want to help out!!! I'll get back to you. Best,Xxx If the manager needs additional info on sirmarkw I hope you guys can lend a hand. I'll keep you updated. (in reply to kungfufighter) Post #: 7
