Another Bay Of Evil Fake

[Paul80]

Hi all

 

Just seen this fake Montblanc on the Bay of Evil

 

http://pages.ebay.com/link/?nav=item.view&alt=web&id=331407708746

 

Can you believe that people are bidding more than you can buy a fake new, these cost £15 including shipping from China,

 

Where are these idiots when I sell my stuff on there.

At least they're being open that it's a counterfeit.

 

I reported a pen to eBay 2 days ago that was purporting to be genuine - Im hoping eBay withdrew it from sale.

And they're still selling it?????!!!!!?????

You can't sell fakes on ebay whether you say it's a fake or not. It's up to Mb to remove it. They have the facility to do so.

Well, I pity those, who thought a pen with such crude workmanship (as visible in the photos, especially on the nib), could be an original.

Really? The text on the nib is awfully wonky

[Mister Mont Blanc]

Yea that is a really bad fake and the box is the usual fake too. They didn't even list it as the right fake model lol

Yes that was on my fake box! It was just as badly done as everything else haha

You are a lucky person. I guess that you have not yet seen as many as some of us.

Why do these people making fakes not fake some of the LE pens instead of some of the hideous "never been a Montblanc that looks like this" pens. Not that I'm advocating the fakes, I just don't understand that aspect.

Oh I'm sure they do but there's more people looking for the more common models and they don't have as many details and materials to use and try to make look good.

They do. They make fake Kafka RB's, many fake Shaw FP's, BP's and RB's, and Jules Verne FP's, BP's and RB's in lots of different colours.

The best.....I received this gift when completing my Masters but it's too precious. You just spent 75k getting a Master's degree and the $200 ballpoint is making you sweat?

 

$5 says his degree is as legit as his pen.

Ironically enough on the bottom of that fake listing was another listing that other people viewed for yet another fake pen. States it part of the Cruise collection but image is of a horrible fake Starwalker.

Condition:

Mint condition, always kept in storage, has a small chip on the bottom of the pen, very slight scratches.

 

All that's missing is, was run over by family car. LOL

Oh my gosh that made me laugh!! Nowhere even near the right model and the "used mint condition" along with the "gone through a garbage disposal" look in the pictures haha. I've seen new fakes being sold but it's sad to see a used one which means someone has owned this thing thinking it's a real MB this whole time. I bet it was a real car that ran over it though!

[Paul80]

£78 at the moment for the known fake listed at the top, a genuine 145 of which it is a fake of often only go for around £125, could this fake go for anything close.

 

Its madness I tell you Madness

 

Anyone want to buy a Fake 145 set, Fountain Pen Ball Point & Roller Ball only £200 what a bargain

[Paul80]

Now at £117 with 14 hours to go

 

As more than one of us have reported this fake to ebay, I wonder how long they will let it go on for before pulling it.
