obez Scams Another Fool
Ebay - I have a list of Un-reputable ebay sellers. AND yes , I've got emails from those stating they wished they had stopped by here first , before bidding.
The thing about " obez " , is the stuff he sells , is made in his garage. In his auction descriptions , he never tells people he makes the item. He just tells you :
" You are bidding on an NR - 1 Submarine Plaque. The emblem is 6 1/4 inches across made of resin with a bronze like finish mounted on a shield oakwood plaque. In good condition "
obez specializes in scamming people , by reproducing Navy plaques in his garage. This Navy plaque sold for 42 dollars , BUTT , don't worry , he will have another made in time for Christmas.
While on this subject , another ebay scammer is dd-748. This guy buys obez's stuff ( that does'nt sell ) and puts it into his ebay store , " US NAVAL MEMORABILIA'S " and sells it like it's the original real deal.
BVD : OK Jerry , what's with the crap here ? Why are you picking on obez ?
Jerry : Well Mr. Smartass , ass you know , there are those who consider me to be some kind of Guru on Navy plaques. I've been around ebay long enough to know who is who. I also know the real stuff from the fake. Keep in mind , some Navy plaques are rather valuable. obez wants you to know , his items are in , " good condition "
BVD : Hmm , obez has good feedback
Jerry : Yep and it's been said , there's a fool born every minute in this country.
BVD : Ooooooooo
Jerry : You just know , this guy is laughing , every time he goes to the bank.
The NR-1 is a Navy Deep Submergence Vehicle.
