Ebay KO more of them?

[1AZRAEL1]

so now buyers can't even get a mint toy without feeling secured that its not a KO. They have to settled for an 'aged' toy, which still might be a KO in the end.

Man, this KO BS is f**k up.

Yea, kinda makes me not want to buy figures anymore for the simple fact it could turn out to be fake.

I've also heard that dishonest sellers artificially age the KO's to make them look more legit, but this mostly applies with the boxes and cardbacks. If they don't sell, then they are removed from the packaging to make it harder to tell if it's fake or not.

It used to be that I would avoid buying from China, but obviously the more KO's these counterfeiters make and sell, the more chance there is of bootlegged toys making their way into the hands of the unaware, and honest sellers no matter which country you buy from.

yeah, KOs have found their way to most of Asia, the US and surprisingly even the UK. It's appalling the number of "MIB Reflectors" UK sellers seem to be selling when I last looked a couple of months ago.
