EK1 Fake At Ebay...Again!

[Peter Wiking]

Here is a EK1 fake that comes up again and agin at Ebay. This seller has a "buy it now" for 199 US Dollars: http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll...510500653&rd=1
This fake can be bought for 55 US Dollars at: http://www.soldat.com/GDR.htm

It is easy to spot this fake by the little dot or knob if you like in the center of the screwdisc. Other clues are the black paint coming up on the frame and the missing peg that should prevent the cross from turning around.

Stay alert!

Peter, (if I may call you that)

I had this one on my watch list, but really didn't think it was real. (hmmm have to watch those little sayings..knew it was new etc) Anyway I seriously digress. I didn't even think about the little tab to keep the cross from spinning around.

Just logged in, seller has ended listing due to error. Could it be that the error was purporting it to be real?

Seriously, I know I asked this in my other post, but is everything on E-Bay a knock-off?

Glad there are folks like you and the rest of the forum to keep guys like me out of serious losses. (serious and seriously, damn I gotta stop that!)

Not all stuff on Ebay is fakes Brien, but there is many as there is on all the other auction places.
