LOL! Absolutely!

The great thing about EBay is bidders only see whats on Ebay, not
whats online as a whole. I must of answered about 12 questions on
this auction. The other seller who has these sold one for $51. He
claims there's only 150 intialed patches in existence. So I
magically have 20 of them? He told me there's only 150 patches
intialed '' RE .'' Would a fake have this hallmark?

I agree, but some of these bidders don't do the research prior to bidding.
That's why I love eBay!

According to the site I referenced there are 150 of these patches made for
each crewmember. Looking at the pictures you have the more desirable third
version. Also, other research shows that one of these patches (signed) sold
for $3,000 on another auction site. I doubt that these are fakes, but I
don't know enough about them. There were several bidders that thought your
patches were worth taking the risk. Sell the others individually with a
revised description linking to the site I referenced.

Yes, I have the Robert Evans patch with the star hallmark. I took my
own risk bidding on them on Manions Auction House. They were listed at
20 for $16-18, opening bid. They put up a small listing, and a fuzzy
pic. This was my first time wandering away from the military items on
Manions. I was thinking ..."Hey, 20 NASA patches, only $16?" They must
be reproductions....I guess not.

How the heck can I get bids up to $3000 on Ebay? Fancy listing? I
have 14 left.
