[QUOTE="Joe, post: 257896, member: 440"] Jason, with regard to the props - I am [u]not[/u] a prop collector but I have been collecting for well over 10 years now and as far as I can remember I have been hearing bad things about you and the props you have bought and sold. I will do my best to hunt down some information on specific incidents though because I agree with you, it's pointless to talk about props unless I have all the information. However I do just want to confirm that you are saying that in all the time you have been involved in the prop game you have never had a fake go through your hands and to your knowledge these claims are all false? As for the story about Toni..well I had heard a rumour but I haven't heard anything concrete, I always put it down to people either being jealous of the figures he had the foresight to buy in bulk or the disbelief that cards that old could look that mint. As far as I know he has always claimed that his figures are warehouse finds/ex shop stock. Jason (Smith) -I think it's a little silly to ask what the impact will be if he did in fact seal figures to cards himself in the 90's..total catastrophe I would assume.

I really do hope Toni can set the record straight on this one.
