Buying on Ebay

Ebay usually has many Navy plaques for sale. Some sellers are junk dealers and some sellers are scam artists. If a seller says the item is made of resin (not a kit) then they are lying to you. Resin is a kit and the person is making them in their garage.
I can show you how to make a plaque emblem and I will give you the mold as well. My molds are standing the test of time right now , with many going on 20 years and still going strong , making emblems.
There was a biggie auction in New York and a seller had several Navy plaques for the auction block , stating they were the real deal. Someone pointed out , they all came from Ebay and proved it with pictures. Needless to say , that seller is no longer welcome at that auction house and "yes" , the word got out and that same person is no longer welcome at other auction houses either.

Note: I have several SSBN plaques not listed here. Please ask.

Enjoy

USS LOCKWOOD FF-1064 ashtray


USS LOCKWOOD FF-1064 brass ashtray. It is dirty and I will let you do the cleaning. Some people prefer not to disturb the patina color , that comes with age. Very few ash trays have the ship's crest , which makes this rather unique. This is a lathe spun brass tray , it is not cast brass.

Your price is 30.00$ includes shipping and insurance costs

Thank You
