| Look out for tworiverz on ebay who is selling recards of very rare / hard to find MOC's He does advertised them as repros but they are not marked as such so someone could pass them off as real further down the line. Also he only recards very rare or hard to find MOC's its funny how these guys never recard ROTJ Klaatu's! An example is pictured below other examples included BOUSHH ON A MECCANO TRI LOGO and other Top Toy Recards. |

| Repro's wouldn't be such a big deal if they were marked. I wouldn't mind repro weapons if they were easily identifyable by even beginners. Rare MOC wouldn't be a threat if you could spot one without extensive knowledge.
Thanks for the warning dude. I'll be on the lookout for future auctions. |

Thanks for the warning dude. I'll be on the lookout for future auctions. I agree. I don't see why they can't just put the watermarked words Reproduction on the back of the card somewhere. To me that shows the seller takes responsibility for what they are doing and know their items won't be sold later on by a scammer advertised as original. |

| I got in touch with Tworiverz (Peter), voiced the concerns and hes agreed to now include a repro mark to each cardback, whether it be on the barcode or the front. |

Wow Rob. Way to go! First time I've ever heard of one of these repro sellers doing that. |

| I know Peter from FFURG, we do chat occasionally, he thought his addy would do the job but sees what can happen further down the line now, as a return gesture i might just buy one from him now for displaying in this thread - the right way to do it |
