    For those of you who report fraudulent items, what drop down choices do you use? It appears that the old menus have been revised and none seem to address the issue. Perhaps I am missing something somewhere...

    I used:

    Copyright and trademark

    then

    Counterfeit item or authenticity disclaimer

    then

    Counterfeit, fake, or replica item

    Then enter. You get the item number and a box to describe the problem. I usually just put Forged signature or autograph in the box.

    "Copyright and trademark" is the only menu I didn't check. Thanks, John.

    LOL, that same guy had more than a few fakes and none look the same at all. Seems like he could at least have the same person fake them for consistency.

    Would it be outrageous for people here to advertise( on their ebay listings) coming to the darktower. org for people to get educated?

    On top of that, I don't think "fine" means what he thinks it means.

    Too funny - smart and crook fortunately often do not mix.

    Seller filip1 strikes again. I paid $14 expecting the slicase version with 3.5 floppy as shown in picture.

    http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll...=STRK:MEWNX:IT

    That is clearly the slipcase version pictured (yes it is stock photo but he didn't have to use the slipcase picture if that isn't what you are getting) and Otto discusses the books to be fine. Well, no slipcase arrived with the books. Seller has become extremely rude and keeps asking "how in the world do you see a slipcase in that picture?"

    A very RUDE seller and could care less about his customers. BEWARE! never NEVER NEVER again

    He sounds like an idiot, as you can clearly see the stock photo is of the slipcase cover, and not of the cover of part 1. I would have expected the slipcase as well.

    My gut feel is fake, mainly because I don't think I've ever seen a King autograph on the front board like that.
