A few clever counterfeits have been knocking around on E$b£y recently.
One expensive item caught me out until I received it, I'm also aware of a frequent loopz member getting stitched up.
I believe the seller genuinely didn't know and was happy to refund me.
The MO was very similar though to a couple of sellers I caught out last year and in 2010.
Perhaps they're back up to their old tricks again under new user names.
I'll not name and shame the seller but I will reply to PM.s if anyone has any concerns.

Was it per se, a CDR of "Where Is It Going"? Yup, same thing happened to me - probably the same seller pulling the same stunt?ACE_SEE wrote:A few clever counterfeits have been knocking around on E$b£y recently.

Re: Collectors beware.....
Hi guys just to let you all know the above counterfeiter is still at it.
An 8:58 'watermarked' promo cdr is on eba% at present. It has a mirrored type disc face. I'm 100% sure its fake.
He's been at it for years and has got away with 1000's of these on eba% and Disc%gs.
PM for his trading names if you are concerned.
