I have noticed a bunch of bogus Red Dot Fatboys listed on eBay lately. They are all listed with one photo, fuzzy, and not a clear shot that would indicate where the Red Dot is. Buyer beware.
Has anybody noticed all the "Red Dot" Fatboys on eBay?

Yup, I see at least 2. I think they see that one true proto sitting @ $300 (for months now) and see the red tab for the adjuster and think.. ZOMGPrototype$$$$$!!
But anyone who still uses pictures @ 320x240 off of a webcam to post ebay auctions in this day and age should be taken out back and beaten. grrr

There was one where the seller actually said there was a red dot.
Then there was another where "Red dot" was in the title, but never came up again. If you looked closely at the pictures on that one, you would see that it was in fact not a red dot and just a regular fatboy

A couple of weeks ago someone was advertising a regular Fatboy as a 195!

Actually a Fatboy is a 195. Gillette had no model designation for the "Bottom Dial 195". It is only here that we have agreed that the 195 designation indicates a bottom dial. There is a thread somewhere that explains this.
Also remember that the "red dot" only came with a D1 date code.
