True That my friend, True That! Look it at, its identical. Remember, colour filters and other effects would change the colour and stuff once its been filmed. But anyone who could replicate this sort of prop deserves big money for it lol
I suppose you could always hollow it out and wear it as some sort of shroud lol

In fact, would they not already have a mould of her teeth from Nightmares? I don't know for sure how they made the vamp teeth on the show, but I know a friend who does it casts your teeth first then sculpts the fangs.

I'd hardly call it insane. Quirky, yeah. I don't see how a thread supposed to be discussing a unique/freaky prop has turned into the bashing of an eBay member And yeah, who ever has the time to sit and make that out of whatever materials they have lying round, and match a pair of denchers to the screencap is amazing. How can anyone think this is a fake? Engage the brain Well, its hardly a rational and balanced response to some of his questions is it? Or do you think its appropriate to go jumping on people? Also, I know 4 prop collectors high in the field who have had direct dealings with this guy or know people who have had dealings and he "claims" to have items, sells them on auction but then won't hand them over and drags his feet and is rude about refunds. Most items he advertises do not therefore apparently exist. I don't think it'd be particularly hard to grab a screen cap and photoshop it etc. If its real, fine, I don't actually give a toss either way. And I wasn't eBay member bashing, I was calling it how it is with evidence. Look at his replies. But quite frankly, I don't appreciate your reply. Wading in and slapping me on the wrists over nothing. Since you find it so important shall I go and check your replies for their appropriteness in terms of thread topic or opinion?

Quite frankly I'm not bothered what you do. The thread was about the item, not the seller. You immadieatly weigh in with your suspicious and "expertise". If someone on here had been seriously considering bidding fair enuff. But it was a laugh. And you made everything so down-hearted.
As is apparent with a lot of the replies you give, you like to complain. And when someone disagrees you get on your high horse. You may not appreciate my reply but you've got it. And again now.

Well, I DID BID on this item-albeit early on. And madvicks' insights were important to me in making decisions about possible bidding further. For an item which would potentially max out my all my credit cards to get, I want as much information about the seller as possible. This particular seller is someone who has demonstrated that they are unreliable in other deals- so it's important for potential buyers to know. I applaud Vicks' candor and appreciate her willingness to help other ebayer.. that's what community feedback is all about.

I have been collecting Buffy screen used props for a long time now, and have been in prop collecting for years, and have dealt with prop makers, people from the production, etc. I would have easily paid top dollar for this item, had this guy been decent to his bidders and could produce some kind of proof this item was real/screen used. I completely agree with "madvicks".

I agree on that, if Vicks didn't point him out plenty of members here could easily end up dealing with that creep.
