Dr Buster said: One final major caveat is that to buy such a purported rare and desirable collector's item on a medium such as Gunbroker, one must have faith, money, expertise and an iron clad inspection period.

The faith and money part are givens; the expertise is a hard thing to accomplish and the inspection period is moot, given the lack of expertise. There can be no expertise in judging something's originality if it is a fraud from inception.

Sir, in jailhouse terms, this is what is known as the "Long con". Run away.
