Imitation is the ultimate form of flattery!

[Darthdiesel]

This gave me a chuckle when brought to my attention!

 

My auction

 

Copycat auction

 

1) Is hckypro96 for real?

 

2) I wonder if there really are 2 of these reprints floating around graded at 7.5? Hmmm

 

3) Ryanrider - is he/she a forumite?

Well, looks like he copied your auction verbatim (even including the "insufficiently_thoughtful_person remark").

 

Go get 'em Darth!

Maybe it's Darthweasel

In this case it would seem that plagiarism is the ultimate form of flattery.

Imitation is the ultimate form of flattery!

I thought the "Ultimate" books were the sincerest form of imitation.

Darth, the real question is why would you even slab that book?

 

DAM

It seems a wormhole has opened to a parallel ebay universe!

[Rickdogg]

I think I saw a 9.2 floating around yesterday for $125

Darth, the real question is why would you even slab that book?

 

Because it was cool to have a slabbed NM AF at some point in my collecting career, until it came back as a 7.5 VF-

 

Besides I couldn't get comfy on my roof trying to take a small enough picture to post, and then auction it off by setting a deceptive $12,000 reserve.... but then again, if this buyer flakes, that may be the next appearance on eBay.

 

Or I could set up a Singapore, Malaysian, or Australian acct and scam it that way too; demanding wire transfer payments only

Darth, I think we would all like a NM AF 15, but I for one don't want a NM AF reprint Take my advice - "reprints are for reading, not slabbing"

 

Here's to the real AF 15 NM one day!

Imitation is the ultimate form of flattery!

 

You might say, in this case, that "Imitation is the ultimate form of insanity".
