Kinda makes one wonder how many other mistakes their antique "experts" have made, if they don't even take the time to research something they obviously know little about. It wouldn't have taken 5 minutes of research to ascertain what this item is.

And the real sad thing here is what happens now. The buyer doesn't pay and the seller files a non paying bidder strike against the innocent bidder. Neither can give feedback, (or it could be removed if they did because the transaction was not completed) and so only the buyer suffers any harm. A non paying bidder strike...3 and you're out. And only because an item was grossly misrepresented by the seller. But like George says, ebay won't do a #@$% thing against a Platuinum powerseller that gives them many $$$$ in fees. Ebay NEVER looks at who is actually at fault. [X(]

I just don't get it. They sell some really high quality watches and jewelry and even their antique costume pieces should bring a good price and they are willing to take a chance on their reputation over a fake jar.

I still think that they got into something they didn't know anything about and got burned and are more than happy to pass on the burn to some unsuspecting buyer to get their money back.
