Could it be estand is becoming just another clearing house like e bay for fakers crapola?

[Terry OToole]

hmmm this issue has been brought up before nothings changed

All of the moderators here are volunteers.

Unfortunately, we do not see all things at all times, as much as we may try.

This matter has been brought to my attention by private message and it is being addressed.

I have posted a link to the discussion thread in the sales thread.

Hi all,
just saw this thread continuing. It would have been nice somebody contacting me especially when you saw me selling the badge on estand. I did not follow up this thread because i thought after the commends until then that it was good. I will immediately contact the buyer and send him back his money. I never had the intention to sell a fake to somebody as a good badge. I have to apologize, something like that did not happen to me before. It was surely not on purpose. I just saw that somebody said one of the Partybadges would be a fake as well. Please let me know what for one you are talking about.

Many thanks Wim. What a shame that the seller has not addressed the obvious problems with the badge and has not linked to this thread from the sales thread. I think that would have been helpful to any prospective buyers.

I agree with you being upset. But it would have been nice if somebody would have contacted me as the seller. Only one Pm and the entire matter would have been solved. It was never brought up to my attention. Probably my mistake that i did not follow up this thread. And for that i again apologize to the people beeing upset and involved in that case. And again i can assure you that it was not my intention at any time to offer or sell knowingly a fake badge. skalp

I see now that a simply PM could have been helpful for everybody. So I apologize too.

I's the party pin with both RZM mark and Ges. Gesch. that is a fake. The other one is a fine M1/72.


Regards, Wim

Thank you Wim. I saw the two comments of you and Torres dated 14.6. and as you can see nothing else was written until 2.7. I looked at this thread a few more times after you and torres where writing and as nothing else came i figured that it is not your favoured piece but it would be ok. I would have never paied any attention to this at all if i would not have been suspended as a seller because of that. Never got any PM whatsoever about this matter from anybody neither members nor moderators. People who know me or bought from me before know that i would not do sell intentionally crappy stuff and that i am an honest person. My apologies to everybody one more time.

No probs Skalp

No matter how large the staff, there will always be subjects that may go unobserved for a least a brief period of time, particularly on a forum that operates on every continent of the world except Antarctica, and on a 24 hour a day, 7 day a week basis.

I think that the important point here, though, is that if you see an issue, contact a moderator, or contact the member. That will usually lead to a result such as the one achieved here, which is preferable to lighting the torches and getting out the pitchforks in a thread.

totally agree bill, nice to see an issue solved without any hassle
