Fake Book on Ebay

[Chap15]

This guy is getting original WW2 hymnals and putting names of ships on them and has claimed that they are original. He went too far with this one. The name he put on the WW2 hymnal is the ship "Ronald Reagan". He ruined a perfectly good hymnal. (not by Reagan's name of course).

Under his other auctions he has many of the same listed. They are all in the exact same condition with the same lettering for all the different ship names. Very shady.

Graft!

First thing I thought of was the scam Ryan O'neal was doing with fake personalised Bibles in that movie "Papermoon".

Except this guy isnt getting greiving widows, he is scamming collectors.

I wrote him to ask where he got the books from. Here is his reply-

"Hello, Thanks for the inquiry. I purchased the books at a Department of Defense auction. I notice that you used the USS North Carolina to forward your question. I was on the USS North Carolina BB-55 during WW2. CR Division. I donated several thousand of the books to the NC to be sold in their gift shop with the proceeds directed to the maintenance fund. Thanks, John in WV"
