Re: [MOPO] CASABLANCA half sheet-no feedback ever posted

I had to look that up.
 
Patina (pronounced /ˈpætənə/ or /pəˈtiːnə/) is a film on the surface of bronze 
or similar metals (produced by oxidation over a long period); a sheen on wooden 
furniture produced by age, wear, and polishing; or any such acquired change of 
a surface through age and exposure. On metal, patina is a coating of various 
chemical compounds such as oxides or carbonates formed on the surface during 
exposure to the elements (weathering). Patina also refers to accumulated 
changes in surface texture and colour that result from normal use of an object 
such as a coin or a piece of furniture over time.
 
It could be the seller is referring to the tape stain residue on the left 
border that have a bronze-like "patina". Yes. That's it.

Not that anyone is obliged to leave feedback, but yes, the feedback for  
this seller is quite odd. As I think Michael pointed out  a couple of weeks 
ago, the seller hadn't received  any for the other items he sold either. One 
new  comment has been added since then tho (for a  watch) - "unable to 
receive paypal payment, however returned  money. item not received"
Looks like his PayPal account could have been frozen. Since ebay  keeps its 
actions secrets, we may never know whether that resulted from the  sterling 
efforts of MOPO members to report the Casablanca auction, or from  another 
dubious auction, or from a disgruntled buyer, or from some other  
misdemeanour involving PayPal, etc etc. Having said that, he's still  
registered on e
bay, so hasn't been thrown off.

Hey  all,

back in September (9/12), a suspicious CASABLANCA half sheet  was  
auctioned on ebay (http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?  
ViewItem&item=160360019344&ssPageName=STRK:MEWAX:IT).

everyone  felt it was a fake and yet it sold to someone for 627.00.

what i think  is so interesting is that all this time later, NO  
feedback has been  left for this seller, on this item, either positive  
or  negative.

Seems more than a little  "off."
