Winners of these seem to be very satisfied with the final product & price they each paid,as not one has left any negative feedback against the seller warning potential bidders about this issue,or any other.
No bitter bidders? ![]() |

I agree with Joe, these things are flat out BOGUS!! It is pretty obvious by looking at them. They are all "cookie cutter" style fobs, all look the same with the exception of the wording...
If the buyers are happy with them, then what the hey!! There is an a$$ for every seat... "Caveat Emptor" Let the buyer beware!!! ![]() ![]() ![]() Rich

Joey is right, they are flat our phoneys. I was super excited when the very first Nickey one went up for auction about 7-8 months ago. I think it did like $150.00. I e-mailed him and asked if he had another one. He said that he had only three and if I wanted one I had better grab one. He also told me a story about buying a collection from a guy that had thousands of key chains. Well I was suspicious of the guys story and not only did he sell the next three, he sold about 10 more. I just e-mailed him the other day asking obout the Nickey ones and he said:
Dear leddzepplin, Frank, I believe I have 3 or 4 more-- Gary D - thedahmer This guy is one of those people who are out right decieving buyers. By the way, about 8 months ago when that first Nickey one was for sale he had other REAL key chains mixed in the ones that are similar to the COPO & Fred Gibb ones shown. They were nothing like those in style though.

[/ QUOTE ] As was I... although i didn't see them until a month or so ago. Actually by chance, with less than 2 min to go... I placed a $35 winning bid on a Nickey one (one of the more authentic looking ones) and shortly thereafter discovered his other auctions and realized they were fakes. I asked him directly if they were real and got an e mail similar to the reply you got. I never sent payment and never heard another word from the guy. I went totally against my own rule and bought first, and researched later, and if I get a bad feedback for it, so be it...but I certainly have no interest in a fake fob from any dealer. |

I'd love to shut him down, but he's claiming that they are real. The address on the Nickey ones I have seen is wrong, he shows 4601 and it was 4501.
Swiatek says that they did use the 4601 to designate that the shipment was to go to the speed shop, but that was an internal thing. |

I have a couple original fobs of this style from a few supercar dealers in my collection... been waiting for him to put one of "his" versions on so we can compare...With the bids he's getting on the current ones, I'm confident it will eventually happen.

The seller just e mailed me, he was evidently e-mailed by someone here...(wonder who?
![]() "if you do not want it that is OK- No, I am not going to leave negative feedback, that is not my style, I am not trying to cheat anyone here- I am simply selling these things to recoupe my investment-if you think they are fake fine, your loss not mine-I hope you are having fun bashing me on the Supercar-- - thedahmer" I asked him once again point blank if he made these and/or had them made, and also invited him to join up here to defend himself if we are all incorrect in thinking otherwise.
