Not a place so much as a 'to whom'- the FBI in Virginia USA.

 

I had a collection of memoribilia on the JFK shooting. Mainly copies of police reports and such. Thought it was friend playing a joke when I got the order & replied as such (oops) but no, it was definitely real lol.

I,ve had a couple of those over the years. Not the FBI, but one Australian and one International celebrity. One used his own name and PO box address, the other used their name but an agents address. I did some googling at the time and they appeared to be the real deal. I wont name them or what they purchased ( just collectables ), but it is interesting who shops on ebay.

Wow, intersting & amazing stories.

 

It would also be interesting to know if the celebrities still shop here these days too since it seems to have lost some it's charm

It was interesting, The International Celeb was a famous American tennis player who was a legend around 15-20 years ago ( and still part of tennis folk law now ), The Australian was an acclaimed actor who has had international success. Both where several years ago, so I wouldnt know if they still shop here. They both purchased collectables. The items where rare things, but not super expensive. ( $100-$200 )
