Offensive...and worthless to a serious Coke collector.
Sorry, didn't mean to come off so brutally honest. If you like it, that's all that matters.
its cool
my apologies TGBWC, thanks for the info
I am glad that you knew what you were buying-- most folks aren't so lucky!
I am not a fan of these because they are regularly sold as authentic and fool some new collectors. They come in a variety of styles-- Wells Fargo, Colt, Circus, KKK, etc...
Ebay used to be the big market place for these where they would bring $75- $100, with the buyer thinking they had gotten a great bargain on a rarity.
Scott
thank you scott
Happy New Year, Jamie!
No apology necessary jamiedpt. You didn't offend me, this buckle is...because The Coca-Cola Company would never produce something like this (especially covering up their logo as this does.) And like scottvez said, good for you that you knew what you were buying. Too many of these and nude nun Coke buckle and a ton of other fake, worthless, questionable items are being sold on eBay everyday...to unsuspecting collectors.
Yes, those unscrupulous makers of fantasy items sure know how to appeal to our sense of what's important in life! This belt buckle has it all: Coca-Cola, Bare Breasts, USA! Yeee-hawww and God Bless America! :)
I doubt if there are collectors who would think that this is anything but a novelty items which sells because of the coke name. It should not offend any serious collector, anyway. Phil.
Thank you! It is good to publish this for what it is; a modern fantasy.
You'd be suprised PDAM-- it happens all the time with these and other Fantasy buckles.
Take a look at buckles on Collector's Weekly and you will see similar buckles that have fooled folks!
