ANTIQUE-FREE-FOR-ALL	The seller on the left calls anything Tiffany in the title but in the listing he says it is unsigned. A major liar and a terrible example from Ebay. If the seller lies about Tiffany, what about the other items he sells?	ZOKEYNBILL	ARHD

The signature on the left wins the award for the worst fake signature so far in 2007. It belongs to the lamp above offered by BAREFOOTSLIM.

The lamp on the right is the latest offering from NARUKO and the shades appear to have been made in night school shop class. They are such low quality that it is very doubtful that they will be of interest to anyone. This seller has been of interest to TiffanyFakes.Com before and the feedback provides a lot of information as to how their business is conducted. Just like the shades, their guarantee appears to be totally worthless also.

What's going on here? Look at Ebay 300085337688 and see a scam right before your eyes. A seller, GAFIT67SEW who has been registered on Ebay for less than 10 days, of course has a 0 rating, had listed a Tiffany Acorn lamp and although there was no guarantee offered, it still got 6 different bidders and the winning bid was less than $1200. A real Tiffany lamp for that price? I do not think so. Ebay found it necessary to hide the bidders names so nobody knows whether any of them were shills and now that seller is listed as No Longer A Registered User. Who would bid on something so obviously a fake and a scam? 6 different bidders did.

THE BEST OF THE WORST The selections above and below all come from one seller - R1CK1E - who has been a contributor to this site many many times before (see page 4). This seller has these pieces listed and from reading the listings, you can tell that the seller is well aware that he is selling fakes. This seller is asking over $600 for each of these fake and fraudulently signed pieces and if the seller offers fake Tiffany, there is no telling what other fake items are being offered. This is fraud on a large scale and you are the target. What do you think Ebay will do about this?

The lamp on the left is a fake and the shade is real. This is beginning to be a common occurrence so it is always important to consider that you are buying 2 different items.

The lamp on the right is real and the shades are fake - just the opposite of the listing on the left. The seller says they are signed but also calls them art glass and not Tiffany. Confused?

FINE-ANTIQUITIES

THE BOAT FROM TAIWAN HAS ARRIVED WITH SOMETHING NEW Fresh off the docks comes the newest fake lamps. They have hit Ebay and of course, the first to offer them gets the most money. We showed the first one (above) a week ago and it sold to a "Tiffany expert" for over $900.00. The seller was FINE-ANTIQUITIES and the Ebay number was 190093383068 - 9 bids but only 2 bidders and one bidder bid 8 times. What's with that? The next to show up is 170094656463 from INET6094, a frequest contributor to this site and finally is 300094098098 from CYCLONEAUDIOVIDEO who is offering one. One has a goofy signature on it and the others have no signature. Some offered with shades, some offered without. Some right side up and some upside down. All are pictured below. Last listed at $79.99 and had no bids. You would think the "Tiffany expert" would have bought this one to go with the one he bought for over $900.00 and then he would have a pair of fakes. What could be better?

NOW YOU SEE THEM Just when you thought you had seen the last of the group with the many names, brand new to Ebay, from small cities in Indiana, Michigan and Georgia, 0 feedback and the same descriptions with the same old tired lamps - fakes of course - up pops RUSSYFOR63_0. Two listings today and they are the same old dragonfly and the same old daffodil that you have seen before. But there is new news. This seller has been on Ebay for almost 3 months and the seller has 58 positive feedbacks. Can this be real? What about that feedback? It comes from selling $.01 (that is one penny for those numerical challenged) sales of wallpaper (screensaver background) to sellers who are all named PRIVATE. The wallpaper is the same for all of the sales and is sent by gmail. The sales could all be going to the same person - might be but no one would know since they are all named PRIVATE. These people have figured out how to get Ebay to help them and Ebay complies. They write the feedback and the next thing you know is that you have 58 positive feedbacks. Just think about 58 sales totalling 58 cents. You could not get 58 positive feedbacks any cheaper. Just when you think you have it all figured out, realize that all of the wallpaper sales started on March 17 and ended on March 18 and all the feedback came on March 17 and March 18. Unbelievable. This might be a scam within a scam. The seller is RUSSYFOR63_0 and the Ebay numbers are 220095658741 and 220095668108. Bid Early And Bid Often.  NOW YOU DON'T It has not been 5 days and this seller has been kicked off Ebay. Who said Ebay does not protect it's bidders? The seller is now listed as NO LONGER A REGISTERED USER and the fake lamps are gone. Hopefully the seller did not get the names of the bidders and try the usual tactic of selling these fakes off of Ebay. Congratulations to Ebay and why did it take you 5 days to see this fraud when we saw it the day the two lamps came on Ebay?

INET6094, the seller on the left has two other fake pieces listed on this page alone. This seller has been a frequent contributon to this site and any piece of junk is called Tiffany. If they sell fake Tiffany, what other fakes do they sell?

The piece on the left is genuine Tiffany and it is what is left from a "candle" lamp that has had half of it cut off. Better than throwing it away but know what you are buying.

TIFFANY AT AUCTION We have received many questions and complaints from people who have bought a piece of Tiffany at an auction. Warnings have been issued about this before but we will restate our concerns. Currently there are several pieces listed on Ebay for sale by an auction house in Germany and several potential buyers have asked for an opinion. No can do. It seems that the auction house has listed several pieces and there is just one picture of each piece with no detail, no bottom picture and no picture of the signature. It is difficult enough to make a determination about a piece of Tiffany but when there is only one picture, it is next to impossible. If you do not see several pictures, pass on it. If you are still interested, ask the seller to provide more and better pictures and place them on the listing - not just send them by e mail. If there is a future problem, you will need the listing with the pictures. Remember when you send the payment, it is sometimes very difficult to get a refund. Think what you are doing.

The sconce on the left is Tiffany Studios but what we do know about the shades is that they have a fake and fraudulent signature. What we do not know is if they are real Tiffany shades.
