Sucks Big time
When you see fakes going around

SO which of those are proven fake on Joe's auctions?

I remember because it was friendswood Texas. The same town as the lion museum. Yet a different seller name.. kinda fishy.

If you have any more leads or information and need me to go find some sh1t, let me know...

Friendswood is my old stomping grounds and I can throw a rock from my house and hit Friendswood...

Ok, just caught up with the thread

I actually hung out with Joe - I invited him over to my dads house, we ate some good BBQ and he shared a few beers with my dad...

the reason he came over, was to buy the "fade Juliets" that I bought from @zwc0442 about 5 or 6 years ago...

they were purchased by Joe and allegedly placed in his museum...

if I see him again, I'll be glad to punch the beard off his face...

Does anyone else think it’s kinda weird that he’s been active on the forum but hasn’t taken any time to speak up for himself?

Would like to have that juliet back some day that was that first one I ever did like that.

These are real baby.
My pictures not Joes.
It almost appears as if the art is incorporated into the frame, not painted.

I am sorry, the man has never done me wrong and he does Have a lot of BNIB awesome goods.
I think he doesn't pipe in because...its pointless. To be honest I have spoken with a few top teir Oakley people that have bowed out of this forum because of all the bashing. I am just being a messenger that shouldn't probably be messaging. I think Joe is in the same boat.
I like this forum and have learned a lot.
I understand there are people that have had a bad experience. So far I have not

Yes it would probably be best if they did not say anything. There is too much damaging evidence that speaking out against it only worsens their position. Best to hold the tongue.

The end message for everyone is you cannot buy on another person’s word. A collector with a big collection saying something does not automatically mean it is true. Too much shady stuff and greed in this hobby to take everything a face value like....

Joe Smith and his deception on these painted pairs, claiming some well known false things as in the ‘prototype’ metal briefcases, along with the shilling of his own auctions.
Anton Sy/Dr.Flgd and his recasting of trophies and selling them as real.
BAPD and the chrome OTT that was ironically used to rip off Joe.
Trixte and the well known custom lenses sold as HQ customs.
And many more.

Always take everything with a grain of salt and get real proof what the one offs and rare stuff you buy. Be careful out there, as they say.

Amen to that.
