If you're talking about that old b&w pic that was shot around 1994 with '<!--EZCODE ITALIC START--><em>Spank very much</em><!--EZCODE ITALIC END-->' written on it, yeah, it's definitely a fake!<br>I actually got 4 copies of it (for each sent letter)! <!--EZCODE EMOTICON START 8o --><img src=http://www.ezboard.com/images/emoticons/nerd.gif ALT="8o"><!--EZCODE EMOTICON END--> <p><!--EZCODE FONT START--><span style="font-family:georgia;"><!--EZCODE ITALIC START--><em>A n d r e a</em><!--EZCODE ITALIC END--></span><!--EZCODE FONT END--></p><i></i>

That's an unfortunate occurence. Leave negative or neutral feedback for the seller. That's is what you should do. There should not be a dishonest dealer on e-bay. As a seller on e-bay, I am extremely honest and describe the item for sale accurately. (I am not soliciting here. I sell old books and magazines.) In your feedback write something like-this seller did not send a COA as promised. It is a copy. <p></p><i></i>
