  He and is wife have numerous ID's and he was one of the sellers that a few of us on this board harrassed last year. His main ID was NARu'd for a while along with his wifes ID. At one time, I even had them as friends on myspace.
  
  To answer your question, NO! He also has a buying ID that he would buy wrappers, empty boxes and NRMT common lots.

  Thanks LSU. I had a feeling that this guy had been discussed before in the past.

  Can I offer you some good advice?
  
  If someone is selling legit unopened material...
  
  A) They show closeups of the front and back of the packs
  
  Always look for proper unaltered factory folds.
  
  C) If you don't see what looks like a proper (square on the corner) its been resealed.
  
  D) If the packs dont have the roll from the factory but look ironed down on the back..then they are fake.
  
  Here take a look at this...
  
  see the folds on the corners..the squares...
  
  Hope this helps..while there are other things to look for these are the first things to look for when trying to determine real vs. fake.

  No, I hear what you're saying. It just amazes me how egregiously blatant this guy is and how he's profiting from it.

  Run away as fast as you can! He is one of the most NOTORIOUS resealers on the bay. Buys wrappers under alt IDs and makes his own packs!

  This past summer when I was exposing pack counterfeiters such as the likes of import-export-co and waxgold I also posted a thread on these boards on June 2nd giving undisputable proof that Pastoney was a pack counterfeiter.
  
  At that time Pastoney was also selling counterfeit packs using another ebay ID (hunter17045). Both Pastoney and hunter17045 id's were buying their wrappers and empty boxes using a third ebay ID (codyemma17).
  
  I had numerous pictures of wrappers purchased by both pastoney and hunter17045 id's that ended up on wax packs listed on ebay. I submitted to ebay all these pictures and ample evidence linking all three user ID's yet ebay only NARU'd the hunter17045 id and left his other two id's alone.
  
  Consequently nothing was accomplished as pastoney (alias hunter17045 & codyemma17) is still in operation ripping off hard working people!
