Is there a buyer beware thread/list?

[evl hmr]

Hello PF folk
I was wondering if there is a list anywhere that contains buyer beware of seller recast/forgery ?

I got caught out recently (not someone from this forum) and although I got my money back I thought it would be handy if such a list existed.

I mean, even on eBay there are numerous companies offering obvious fakes that to the unsuspecting could seem like a genuine bargain

Thoughts?

Good idea, but how to do it without giving free advertising to the forgers?

Hi there

It sounds a good idea on paper ......

but I am sure other mods/ admin will correct me hopefully! If I say that there is no such list or woukd we want to have one here on PF

Ian raises the main point it would be free advertising

You might note that no reference to any known Recaster is in any threads If it has been it was removed so as not to publicise these thieves .

The list would probably be a mile long and continuously growing.
