Fakes...Loads Of 'Em!

Post by spongebob »

In all the years I've been checking E-bay, I've never seen as many Rickenfakers as are on there now.

E-bay UK, that is.

I don't know if the law has changed or something, but it has gone from having only the genuine artice, to a good (or bad) number of badly-made replicas.

I suppose the demand is there, given the situation over here, where a copy is about £2200 cheaper than a new one! :shock:

We spotted several fakes and very close calls at NAMM! :evil:
