Today, Anthony Shkutnick’s *stoneark* eBay account (AKA stonark, AKA Corner Collectibles, AKA Cornner Collectibles) was changed to a suspended or “NARU” status (Not A Registered User – or – No Longer A Registered User). This dealer has been the focus of an ongoing investigation into the provenance of items offered for sale to the public that were “guaranteed authentic” wardrobe and other personal items attributed to various classic Hollywood stars and other celebrities.
Last week, one of the individuals whose name appeared on one of these Letters of Authenticity declared the document to be fraudulent (see Charge of “FRAUD” Over Letter of Authenticity From eBay’s *stoneark*).
