Here is a nice example, no picture of the baseplate rivets, but is this model ever faked ?

At the risk of reigniting what has twice proved to be an extremely heated debate, could I please remind members that we have a tacit gentlemen's (and ladies') agreement that links to live auctions will not be posted unless it is to alert other members to e.g. a possible fake or to query something/obtain additional information. (There is no issue with links to BiNs.)
The reason for this is that many board members invest heavily of their time in trawling the internet in order to separate the wheat from the chaff and so do not appreciate it when something they have spend an hour or more finding is publicised on the Forum (and, don't forget, such links are also visible to the many lurkers who visit).

Hugh is right Ghosty, This has been debated many tiumes before and the general concencus is that live auctions are not discussed unless it is a BIN or if there is some doubt about the models authenticity and therefore it is in the interest of members to discuss it

Hello Alex, yes I realise that now and if you look at my posting times, I was wide awake at that time of the morning, could not get to sleep and did some EBay surfing. I have already apologised to Huge and await his serious slapping of my wrists!

I explained my position of being a non-EBay user and I did not do my homework about posting such links on the forum and that I will learn from this and only post 'BIN' models in future.

I apologise to any any forum members here if you were affected by my posting of these rare models if you were bidding on them, sorry Guys.

Ghosty.

I've bought from Grandmoff many times, going right back to the days of Yahoo auctions. Never had a bad item from him.
