I've just spent the last hour or so reading through the old thread on Jabba 5.0.
WOW, someone needs to make the movie of that. Shocking stuff, what the hell became if Phil/ Barbara????? The balls of the guy (no pun intended)
Other than Phil and Toni have there been other major scammers called out with threads like theirs.
I find it fascinating that people with knowledge of the hobby can literally turn to dark side in such a profound way. I love vintage, it's such a big part if life and to use the knowledge I have to scam others is unimaginable to me.
Were they collectors in the first place? The average person in street wouldn't know a 12 back from a potf2 so these characters must if had some passion of vintage in the first place? but how'd they get so corrupted? Money I know, but ****........
Then I look on eBay and see all the repro and see there are a lot more Phil's out there now and things have just gotten worse since 2008. Glad I found the SWFUK.
