Default Oh for god's sake get serious.....Canadian F & P

Well, here we go again with a bad copy of the Canadian Film and Photo Unit. Even a blind man would not be taken by this.
Well, at least the seller is right in writing " I believe the patch speaks for itself"...yeah right.

I was under the impression that there weren't many of these around (i.e. left) and of the few that were, were probably taken off of a uniform and would be
in what might me described as a 'very worn state'. I am obviously not as up
to date as I should be.

Jo seem almost suprised at the number of Reproductions out there. No where in the add did I see he says they are originals, I did however read this OUT he has.

The origianal owner collected some older RARER patches...and also filled the gaps of 'difficult / impossible to find 'items with good reproduction patches. I am Not an expert...........so this collection of patches will be listed as low priced NO reserve........there are genuine and some good repros...I am not sure which is which....come on bag a bargain.............any q's please email me.Many of these are Re-Enactor & Museum display quality.

He has had the same template for his ads for at least 4 years, likely longer. You would think in that period of time he would have learned a little about badges... And he seems to have a large supply of the Film and Photo titles, probably more than were in the unit.

Default Film and Photo Title

I find this add and all his listings very funny. Neil Weiner(yes this is his name) makes every claim under the sun on how he would never sell anything that was not right blah blah blah and yet the Indiana Jones of Ebay does it again and again. go figure.
