icemanxp300 Posted September 17, 2017 Share Posted September 17, 2017 Up to $132. I did just report it but I did a different report. I have learned it is VERY hard to get a listing removed for counterfeits and such. It requires certain criteria for ebay to remove it. I do believe my report will stand a good chance of removal. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
masschamber Posted September 17, 2017 Share Posted September 17, 2017 does anyone have the money to buy it tell ebay it is a conterfeit after receiving it. You'll be instructed to destroy it. You'll get a refund the frauds Mcconman gets stuck with the fees Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

atari181 Posted September 17, 2017 Author Share Posted September 17, 2017 This listing was ended by the seller because there was an error in the listing. That is the first auction, the relisting is still up and should be reported Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Swami Posted September 18, 2017 Share Posted September 18, 2017 So is the one from that craigslist real? I'm not expert on Eli's Ladder. I don't know, myself, either. A bit weird to sell it in a local market, but maybe hoping for cash payment. The lack of end label picture seemed fishy, but craigslist ad pics tend to be crappier than ebay pics on the whole. From comparing the others, it look like the one with the torn label has a rounder G than the others, but that could just be perspective. Finally, label looks laser-printed, so I side with fake. Mostly posted it to compare to the others, since most of the planet outside the Twin Cities would never see it. Charging enough for it to be real.

+stupus Posted September 18, 2017 Share Posted September 18, 2017 It probably has no end label and that's why there is no picture. The Craigslist 1 looks the most real otherwise.....but at this point I trust no copies....all your eli's are fake!!! Cept this: 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mayhem Posted September 19, 2017 Share Posted September 19, 2017 It's fake as well. Which is why I put it up, I was pretty sure it was as well. As I said, I used to own a real one, but it's been a good many years since I let it go... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

His is real because it doesn't have the face. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
