Check it out. Used Marv's picture and looks like part of the description came from P & P Seeds. And congrats on the 267 Marv... http://www.ebay.com/itm/GIANT-Carolinia-Cross-Watermelon-267-pounds-free-shipping-/110772419756#vi-content

Ah yes, the extremely rare and elusive 267 Mitchell. It has been very seldom seen; and was seen only in a bar once or twice. Those eBay sellers are ignorant.They are certainly nothing to worry about. :o)

You mean i didn't grow a 267? Well maybe in 2012. You would think they would have used a picture of one of the good looking gals from the GWG. Not my old mug.

So how many did you get Chris?..Ha ha! You could get about 200 of those for what the 239's are going for. Better hurry up and get them folks, I don't think the auction will be up much longer ;) You are welcome for the link Ray, I thought you might be interested. Hey Marv, I got dibs on a couple of those 267 seeds next year :)

Dewight- Thanks for noticing and alerting everyone of the newly added ebay items with the pirated photos and bogus information. I would also like to warn new growers that are intrigued with the melons in the 1930 and 1935 photos to not be fooled. The ad photos list the melons as Kolb Gems but the melons in the photos are Triumphs. The Triumph seed line is extinct. At least eight of the ebay ads for big watermelon seeds are using photos lifted from other internet sites.
