"Ted Moustakis, of Towaco, N.J., purchased the item for $6,000 in an auction of CBS Paramount Star Trek props in 2006. He also a purchased table that was part of a set for $6,600 and a Data uniform for $11,400."

If this Moustakis guy has that kind of disposable income, he really should move out of his Mommy's basement into his own place and then maybe women might some more interest in him.

Of course it is fake. The "real" visor is still in the "future". He must not fully understand time travel.

ROLF

If he had a date with a real woman (not his mom), he might've known some real life information before the auction.
