Tell us has your experience with this business or person been good? What's this?

 Late April of 2016, my fiancé and I traveled to Las Vegas for a Business/ personal vacation. Unfortunately for us we wandered into a store called " Art Of Music " in the Mandalay Bay. The store is filled with pictures and wall hangings and memorabilia with every entertainer/ movie / rock band you could think of. Being the Pink Floyd Fanatic I am and have been for 50 years , we proceeded to look for (and found ) various pictures of the band with albums and guitars all SUPPOSEDLY signed by all 4 members. Can't believe I was so gullible. I'm usually very NOT ! We struck up a conversation with one of the conmen/salesman who saw how interested we were in a certain framed and autographed guitar set in a case with the albums Animals as a background. After negotiations took place ( a 50% discount ) of asking price plus " I'll through in an autographed pic of the band all for $5000.00. Well we left , thought about it and came back for the bait. My fiancé offered to buy it as my engagement gift. Well . We purchased a cubic Zirconian. For lot of money. They shipped it to us and being the proud owner of such an item , I put it on Facebook. A very good friend of mine who owns many autographed memorabilia called me and told me about the reputation of the store where we purchased it and that it probably was fake. We sent it to a noted authenticator who responded that this was a fake. FORGED !! Really pissed off I called them and couldn't believe their response. They weren't even surprised. I wrapped it up it the package I received it in , took it to Fed Ex and sent it back. In Effin real. A place like that selling forgeries. Thank god I paid on credit card. It is now in dispute and I was recently awarded a judgement in my favor. I hope this helps someone else before it happens to them. This is outrageous that they are still in business and allowed to remain there. Thanks to LS from saving us from a major loss.
