Fake Wheeljack

[Demonac]

I would like to believe the seller who says it isn't a knock off, but it is too cheap for an original MISB Wheeljack:

From the item description:
ORIGINAL 1984 WHEELJACK MINT SEALED BOX, NOT A CHEAP KNOCK OFF, METAL COMPONENT'S STAMPED 80-82 JAPAN

If the item is MISB, how does he know what date is on the metal parts?

Oh dear. While the bootlegs are becoming sharper, the scammers are getting even dumber. Maybe when he says 'NOT A CHEAP KNOCK OFF' he means it's an EXPENSIVE knock off.

Someone should msg him via eBay messaging and see how he reacts when confronted with that!

Funny s**t!

And just for a bit of amusement, I just messaged them about the same thing:

Hi,

If this item is mint and in a sealed box, how do you know that it is stamped on the metal components?

Cheers

I'll see what response I get.
