Even better then the Waf Ra-RA, is perhaps a worthless COA of D.Niemann who closed shop in 2010.
You know that`s also a reason I was booted from the WAaaaf. I was talking too much about Niemann. Because, there are a group of die hard Niemann fans that claim - each time a pathetic fake is shown together with a CoA from him, that "
Oh the CoA is faked.. there are hundreds of fake CoAs known from him." So I challenged them to show me one bit of evidence - from the horses mouth - that a CoA from Niemann had ever been faked? Nobody could, it was all Ra-Ra.
Collectors are quick to invent stories to cover him and the crap he sold over the years. Even going so far as to scream, blue murder that it is "
well known" that his CoAs have been faked before.
It is not, they are not faked, that is all collector BS, from die hards that need to keep his legacy going, keep his image clean.
He did some real damage to the hobby, and his telephone-directory books are full of fakes too. His price guides are useless, and the truth of the matter is, as you say, that his CoAs are worthless! Niemann became what he became, because those who bought from him, spun the Ra-Ra, and put him onto the pedestal he was on.
He was the inventor of the Friday feeding frenzy, where collectors had no more than a few seconds to press BUY NOW, otherwise they`d miss out on a great deal from the "Famous Detlev."
They were suckered for sure, but it was all their own doing. I never bought so much as a hair pin from the guy.
He was also a WAF member, and would ban you from his site if he found you talking whack about him.
