Mars wrote in Fake hologram stickers are not ligit. Dont buy them on ebay.:Doing a bit of poking around, these are 100% fake. Seems there are a few accounts selling similar types of stickers but the auction format is the same. Most listed "They are pre production pieces." or only to Corporate clients or were suppose to be given away but weren't. Same statements about taking photos at different angles ...Ya, 100% fakes, no doubts there anymore.Here's on for a 2016 Dave Matthews concert with the same windmill "Corporate Use Only" sticker on the back: ** eBay auction listing blocked.

Hello Chrissy, in the last days in my online community I had the unpleasant circumstance to read this topic: Are these ligit to the era?Since more than one of the fellows of this community reported that you are open to a refund, I'd kindly ask you to have a full refund of my purchase. For your convenience the Paypal transaction ID is ### while the ebay transaction ID is ### (and the ebay auction nr is ###).Re to the card, since I sent it directly to my friend ***, please let me know if you want it back or if I can ask my friend to pulp it.I look forward to hearing from you, thanks a lot in advanceAxel
Hello AxelI am actually not open to a refund of any sortI have been forthright with each buyer and was honest to a hiltThe buyer was in Canada and because these are 100% authentic and I sent eBay all my uncles private documents of my uncle’s work history I didn’t have to do it but because I am busy with work I did it for the one person. I will not do it for anyone elseThey exclaimed to me that in any form of a collectibles market prices fluctuate this is the exact same thing and I did t think about that before but it is true I suppose it’s like Bernie babies however that being said this does have actual historyTherefore I will not accept the returns of anyone else. And for the record he never actually returned the items to me he still has themThanksChrissy

Mark obviously nailed it with his investigation! That seller and all its incarnations needs to go under Shaddy Sellers. Is there a" Fakes" thread in the Acaeum too? If not I feel it may be time for one as values increase.I have been in touch with the local police about another scam and will point them to this one, for what its worth.

aia wrote in Fake hologram stickers are not ligit. Dont buy them on ebay.:I bought one of these cards and after reading this topic I asked in a very kind and transparent way to have a full refund:This is the reply I got from here:I have now written her a second time asking her to reconsider my request since there is not any evidence supporting different facts from those highlighted here.I really hope she will understand that it is better to give up rather going forward...
gregory wrote in Fake hologram stickers are not ligit. Dont buy them on ebay.:I am the buyer "she" refers to, who got them to issue a refund. We believe it is a couple actually who is behind the scam, given the hairy hand on some pics. (Apologies if I offend any hairy-hand female here!)I reported them to ebay (the seller report function is buried in the Help page) as well as reported every of their items as fake. Strength is in numbers with eBay so please do so too. The craziest part is eBay does not allow submitting negative feedback on transactions. They keep popping a message asking me to "work it out instead", even though the Negative option is offered on the screen it all greys out when submitted. Criminal. I also sent them the following message, which you are free to use. Some cut and pasted from Mars great investigation. My hope is at some point ebay will pick up on them. I am idealistic like that. But they know that if the return is denied and no resolution is found, ebay has to investigate and will look into the messages. This is why I wrote it like that and likely why they accepted the return, to avoid triggering an eBay investigation. Note you actually have to use the return label and send the items back to get the refund, since eBay does not seem to have a refund function that accepts the destruction of fakes. I will leave it with you and your imagination to assess what best to return... Here is the message I sent:"Christine B Nodler, can you explain why you use 5 ebay accounts to sell the fake color stickers with similar fake stories about your family members, who somehow all got access to those magical items through some corporate events? Justforlaughs9, Kathybird, primenumber73, just to name some... And then you have things like these D&D cards which are suggested to be from early 1980s using the same "Corporate Use Only" windmill sticker as a recent never released to public McDonald's Rick and Morty card? TSR in 80s using the same company McDonalds uses today doesn't seem possible. Oh and the same company using these stickers also does Dave Matthews band. Ya 100% fake and you're a scammer.Why do you do this? Is that for the money or you take pleasure in it?"The scammers addresses are in Philly and Atlantic City, also shown on the postal trackings. I bought those items from 2 different profiles with the exact same handwriting on both - I keep pictures of all packages.It looks like the name Christine B Nodler is real and she indeed owns the apartment at the provided address in Philly. The other address is "56 Galleria 08330", which is Atlantic City. They will learn better than to eff with a bunch of obsessive-compulsive detail-junkie collecting addicts like us!

aia wrote in Fake hologram stickers are not ligit. Dont buy them on ebay.:Hello Gregory, i had been involved i two cases in my past experience which are similar to the current one. As I am aware that ebay won't do anything to protect the buyer, i have opened a file to the FBI section which is in charge of the postal crimes. That was sufficient in the past to make their mind up and accept to send me a refund (being a non-US it is not clear to me what could happen once the case within that office starts). I have written to Chrissy a second message asking very politely to reconsider her position. I will wait till tomorrow and then act consistently.I hope she/he/they will wise enough to avoid this scenario... for a single sticker that is completely worth to my eyes! If they don't think so, they will bear any further consequence.Thanks again and keep you updated!Ciaoo
