Well something is really fishy about this ring, I also emailed him for pictures, my freind emailed him for pictures and two other guys I know emailed him for pictures...NOTHING!!! Not even a response. I don't even think he has a ring, and if he did then he must be hiding something.

$7500.00 with a $10,000.00 BIN. Looks good on outside but additional close-ups would be needed on the inside to tell for sure.

It gets better, not only is the ring a fake but the lone bidder at $7500 is in all likelihood a shill bidder.

Both seller and bidder are from Florida. The bidder is not someone who collects militaria and under normal circumstances uses Eban to purchase colored glass items and homeschooling books, presumably a female.

The Seller has a 100% feedback rating but don't be misled, they're mostly from purchases and not sales. The purchases? Mostly arts & crafts supplies, collered beads, etc. Oh, the Seller did purchase a book on SS commanders a month ago, so that's likely how they got some info on the ring and potential value. As if there was any doubts to the gender of the Seller, the Seller's email address is [email protected].

Do the math, shill bidding on a high ticket fake.
