Mario Saricca, originally selling on eBay as “puttieface” (see eBay’s puttieface & Entertainment Movie Props<\/a>), who later changed his eBay account name to “votehillary” (see …”votehillary” Update<\/a>), only to have been removed from eBay less than two weeks ago (see eBay’s “puttieface”, “votehillary” No Longer a Registered User<\/a>), appears to be trading under an alternate eBay account, “spadorcia”, which today was changed to “hoist73”.\u00a0 Also of note, the EntertainmentMovieProps.com<\/a> web store has been down since March (as reported in the story Reader Comment: “The Bride’s Hero Sword from Kill Bill”, Entertainment Movie Props<\/a>).<\/p>\n

While Mr. Saricca’s “puttieface\/votehillary” account was converted to “No longer a registered user\/Not a registered used<\/em>” (or “NARU<\/em>“) status by eBay – prohibiting his participation in selling and\/or buying in the marketplace – an account long associated with Mr. Saricca has subsequently become active in offering props and wardrobe for sale on eBay.<\/p>\n

The account, “spadorcia”, was today renamed “hoist73”:<\/p>\n

“spadorcia\/hoist73” Marketing Description:<\/p>\n

This sniper rifle was screen used in the sci-fi film
\nAeon Flux, It is also the only 100 pct complete sniper rifle
\nthat remains from this film. I was told by Premiere props this also is the only sniper rifle with a removable clip that has one of the plastic bullets!!! It also comes out of the clip as well.
\nProp is made of hard heavy resin-metal -plastics . The scope is a working Walther 4×32 model Military Pro. The trigger does work as does the bolt action. The sniper rifle has a real special forces sling so it can be carried snug to the body. Prop is whats called as a hero model used in all the close up shots in the film. Im also tossing in some custom wall mounts that show the prop off nice.The Certificate is from premiere props The shipping charges are exact and are what it cost me when I had it shipped to me. Ebay this is a prop weapon slash toy I added the orange plug to the barrel it cannot not be made to fire any bullets fake or live . Remember this is the only hero rifle intact from the film!!!!<\/p><\/blockquote>\n
