Item 1
Item 2

Either he doesn't know, or he is one of those sellers trying to scam people. Personally, I would say the latter if he clearly states it's not a fake. And for that amount of money, it is completely insane. Does an original one sell for that much?
Doesn't appear to be a scammer, as they are the only two fake TFs I can find in their current listing. Usually people will have quite a few listed, as their source of income. I sent them a message with the link, just in case they didn't know (and were victims themselves, thinking that they bought real figures). I also reported both to Ebay, just in case.
The easy tells are the silver screws (real Rumble/Frenzy has dark screws), and the yellow 'burst' pattern on the card going above the grid.
The second listing even has Rumble instead of Frenzy in the packaging.Quote:

Yea. It is an original KO product and not a fake KO. :)
I don't buy the fact that they don't know it's a KO. Postage is only US$10 international. If I were selling a vintage Frenzy / Laserbeak, I would make sure there were all measures of parcel tracking.
That's some crazy pricing!
Nope.Quote:
