Japan Manchukuo 2nd Class Auspicious Clouds

[drclaw]

Rare order in superb condition purportedly available on ebay from our familiar seller from the Ukraine.

No Paypal above USD 500. Wire transfer only! So feel free to bid up to $499.95

Interestingly, the seller is also advertising a 2nd Class Chinese Republic Order of the Golden Grain "set" except with mismatching sash badge and the breast star.

By the way, even 2nd class Golden Grain this mysterious mancio_1990 "may not ship to Russian Federation".

Phaleristic racism!

Phaleristic racism, I love it! That is too funny!

Hey guys, what was the selling price?

I missed this epoch-making event :whistle:

[drclaw]

Didn't check the selling price but hope the buyer isn't fool enough to wire transfer funds to a bank account in the Ukraine.

I've since been reliably informed by one of our excellent GMIC members that the item is located quite happily in China.

That Golden Grain set was also sold only a few months ago from a US ebay seller (I'd forgotten that). Same images from the US seller.

Smart business enterprise. Think how many dodgy fake Chinese medals you'd need to sell to make that amount of cash

If you dangle a line long enough eventually you'll catch a fish ...

I'm sure he has a First Class Golden Kite breast star and sash badge too!

BR, Chris

Nakata replica ... straight from the WWII

P.S. No bidders around this auction. Guess they are all pretty busy with bidding on this set of 2nd clouds

[utopis]

Interestingly he has no negative feedback so maybe no one actually pays for those pieces?

Either that or this guy pretty soon will be a multimillioner :whistle:

$1325 for Clouds and $1525 for Grain...

Sweeeeeeeeeeeeeeeet deal

[drclaw]

I suspect most of the winning bids might be "friends".

It will keep cycling through until someone else wins.

[utopis]

Well look at this. http://www.ebay.com/itm/SOVIET-ORDER-of-ALEXANDER-SUVOROV-1ST-CLASS-/281108107858?pt=LH_DefaultDomain_0&hash=item4173595252

It seems that this isn't his only account. Same Location and same text "PAYMENT : Accepting PAYPAL (confirmed adress and items under 500,- $ only), for all other items accepting wire transfer ONLY!!! PAYMENT SHOULD BE MADE WITHIN 7 DAYS!!!"

Now selling Soviet stuff.

[JapanX]

At least this time he "ships to: worldwide"

Hard worker ...

[JapanX]

Now selling Soviet stuff

Better take a look at this negative feedback for this stellacometa09

Quite diversified seller!

"Louis Vuitton" stuff, "soviet" orders, etc ...

Prodotto contraffatto :lol:

1 day left and only $1

[JapanX]

Looks like he'll never "ship to Russian Federation".

Real tragedy ...
