PS. Only his Ra headpiece is good and exactly replica, but not others. I just told this to Patterson.

: Agree with Jimmie! But it still the best Ra headpiece I ever had! So far I have bought 6 Ra Headpiece. 3 of the are solid metal. 2 of the are from Acme, Others are from some seller on eaby. Although it was not a really nice experience to deal with that guy, but his replica is still the most beautiful piece I have even seen.

: : I am about to leave for work, but if it's slow I will try to post more about this later tonight.....

: : This guy - acme magic co - has about 5 different ebay names.

: : He ALWAYS sets his auctions up as a shill bid/sell. See ebay for the definition if you don't know what that is. That's why his stuff always sells for so much - folks think they are in a bid war with some other shmoe, when it's actually the same guy running the auction!!

: : Others I have known have prchesed his stuff, and while very nice, are also available through others on the net who aren't looking to gouge others.

: : My buddy bought a headpiece from AMC, and I bought mine from an online props dealer (I can't remember his name, as it was over two years ago), and they were identicle...Metal composite with this "rare crystal"....but whereas my pal paid $245 for his, I paid $30. I have been trying to find that guys email addy, or site addy ( I KNOW I still have them), so I can order more, if they are still available.

: : Anyway, when confronted with this, the A.M.C. guy became VERY abusive, and threatening - DESPITE our being successful in causing ebay to close a few of his accounts.

: : He may be ok to deal with, if you're carefull.
: : Personally, I'd almost rather pay MORE than have to take the chance, and deal with this guy.

: : There's more, but I gotta scoot...

: : Indiana Jimmie
