[QUOTE="Stuart Skinner, post: 432715, member: 4666"] Just want to state a couple of points as I get the feeling it maybe coming across that I'm defending Jeff. I'm not, I have met the bloke a couple of times at Farthest From and probably had less than 5 minutes worth of conversation with the bloke, so this isn't me defending anything. Secondly, the evidence in the initial post has been made by frank, who I regard as the most knowledgeable baggie expert. I know nothing about Baggies, I own two and to be fair I don't care too much for them, so as a collector point of view it doesn't effect me directly. if Frank tells me a baggie is fake then in my mind it's fake, there has clearly been a lot of work into this investigation and I like most on this thread appreciate the time and effort gone into researching this issue and revealing it. I also don't doubt that Jeff has been selling these items (willingly or not knowingly), Marc pointed out two fakes on his stall at the recent FF and Jeff removed them from sale, so again I have no issue with the accusation that he offers up these fake baggies. My question is; Is he actually knowingly selling fakes, or does he not really know what he is selling? Is he like the rest of us and just assumed all baggies are legit and collected them, traded them and sold them without knowing??? My issue was the way this was handled and revealed, yes I agree it needed to come to light, and it states that they have been researching for years (think that's what I read). Last night Frank states he spoke with Jeff for an hour and a half, why couldn't the reveal of this happen after that call so the details of that call could be included in this report??? What was said in the call, we still haven't heard that either. My issue and only issue was the handling of the affair and the statement that Jeff must be making these as he has too many to not know. I don't bye that and won't grab my pitchfork until Jeff has had the chance to respond, and I don't doubt for a minute that he will respond. Question that I would be interested in knowing, the baggie that Jeff was told was fake and then apparently sold 6 months later, do we have hard evidence that can be produced for this??? because that wouldn't sit comfortably for me.
