Sorry, Thomas was not starting a crusade either. He has been trying to pass off his pieces as more than they were for some time, but that is not the topic here. When GINO offered up his pieces for sale, there were some pretty descriptive pics of what he was offering.Really ? well as Thomas said when he called Gino out over his claims that was jealousy and sour grapes can't have it both ways.
And i don't recall Gino ever sharing or posting pics in public of tells on any stuff he has claimed to be from an original source we are left to take his word for it.
And nobody well nobody with half an ounce of sense would ever buy a screen used piece as valuable as this without authentication and research.
If the item was for sale which it isn't i'm sure Joe would provide the buyer with all the background on it and let them examine it.
And please dont try and tell me Gino bought this up as some form of crusade to protect his fellow collectors.
Gino doesn't care about anyone or anything unless there is something in it for Gino as he has demonstrated time and time again in the past.
As I said, if the guy is not offering the pieces for sale, then this topic is a non-starter for me and just a wasted effort. Like the guy who bought a CE thinking he was getting a screen used Trooper helmet, he could not be convinced that his helmet was NOT screen used. If this guy wants to think his helmet is screen used and is not offering it up to anyone, then I say let him call it screen used.
