Boy...eBay seller's have been using that "I'm not sure if this is..." line for at least ten years. Sometimes it's difficult to tell who really means what they say.

Anyone remember the dealer who sold background cels on eBay that described them as "I'm not sure if these backgriounds are matching or not"? If you're going to do that kind of thing, don't do them to cels that were sitting on your website backgroundless for the longest time. :^^:

If you look at the outer key holes, it looks like they were punched out with a hole puncher, rather than being slim. LOL

The seller responded with an "Ok. Thanx!" message, but I see no evidence that the listings have been changed.

I am 90% sure this is the same individual that I posted about here:

The listing & wording appear pretty similar to the ones I saw earlier & the one I purchased, even though the ebay name is different. Definitely fakes - I reported this person to Ebay for selling fradulent goods (again - if this is the same person) so we'll see if it goes anywhere.
