I was just looking at that! He's asking $2,500 for a $250 piece... ridiculous.
There is another generic Bum figurine out there (similar to a Hummel) that's always touted as a 1955 Brooklyn Bum Statue. It usually sells for about $15.00, but I've seen it go over $200 when the description is enhanced as such. Lots of unethical sellers around these days, I'm afraid... |

I think describing some of these guys as unethical is being way too kind.

OK, forget unethical.
I guess "delusional" would be giving them the benefit of the doubt. How about "evil" or "criminal"? |

How does this guy not think this is a forgery? Since when is it okay to forge something, announce that it's "art" and then think that's okay? What do you make of the rest of his inventory (he has a few Mantles) and can this item (any of his items) be reported?
Regards, Larry |

So conceivably I could purchase a 1/10 Walter Johnson single signed baseball that I was offered a few months ago for $350, go over it with a pen and then I can expect to get $2,000+ for it noting it's a work of art?
The item has been removed off eBay anyways, but I don't know how anyone thinks that this is fine and to think that they could get a reasonable offer on what I think is now totally damaged item is beyond me. His asking price was $9,999 and to think, he had four offers and didn't take any of them. DanC
