Fakes on Ebay? Putting High End labels on Dog Rockets?

Man. these look horrible. Either poorly stored or plain fakes. Looks like he put labels on dog rockets.

He has several auctions and they all look just as poor.

Re: Fakes on Ebay? Putting High End labels on Dog Rockets?

they look as dry as sand! those wrappers are in horrid condition.

i never trust ebay, esp when there are a lot of great internet retailers who can be trusted.

I would guess they're real, but suffered some kind of horrible humidor snafu and the guy is shamelessly trying to recover some of his $$. Honestly it looks like they spent about 6 months in the freezer. They remind me of wrinkly discolored frozen peas hehe.

Who would want those, whatever they were claimed to be.

I don't know jack about Opus Xs, but those have gots to be fakes--just damn ugly in all respects.

They look like they have been stored inside of an old shoe box that has been left in a hot Brooklyn garage for 14 years...

Worst part is you can't complain to ebay because you're supposed to be buying the "bands".

Re: Fakes on Ebay? Putting High End labels on Dog Rockets?

So should I not bid on the Opus'? I wonder if he will actually unload those poor excuses for premium gars off on anyone. I sure hope not.
