Mr Mir, our fiendly eBay frauster whose customers think is very nice and helpful, has quite a number of quite badly made fake cylnder seals. Here are just three . Many more there.

Everything has to be genuine because his web site features a You Tube video of his recent grave robbing trip to Iraq. Shows him hightailing it over the border with Nebuchadnezzar's stuff, hot lead flying from AK-47's the whole while. What a guy to put himself in personal danger to offer the antiquities world such wonderful stuff, and at bargain basement prices! No, I'm not serious.

This bad seller manages to sell so called cunieform tablets such as most definitely never existed in ancient times.
Look at these ridiculous things!
The buyers on eBay who fall for such as these simply don't know anything at all about such artefcts.

Happy, satisfied cudstomers continue to spend a lot of money on Mr Mir's badly made fakes.
(Many of his fakes are however quite well made)

Yet more fake pieces from this notorious seller which are copied from artefacts in the Louvre Museum.
Here the fake masker missed the important detail that the legs of the throne are anumal legs.

Started "Go Fund Me" page to get this crook euthanized. Donations tax deductible.

I often wonder what  Mr Mujtaba Mir feels when he gets glowing feedback like this.
I wonder if he has a slight sense of guilt...or is he simply a sociopath?
