what do you make of this? its a fuzzstatic copy but the seller looks like hes trying to pass it off as original although he doesnt actually state it is or isnt

How can you tell its a copy

exact same deck

You can understand certain sellers who don’t know what they’ve got miss-identifying a board, I’ve seen lots of Warptail 2 listed as 70’s when they’re clearly a 2000 reissue!
But the guy selling the Sims has some serious collection and often quite interesting listings on eBay, so not sure how or why he’d get this deck wrong, it definitely looks like a tribute board!

Must admit reissue boards are not my thing, and will only raise questions about authenticity in the future.

told him its a copy and he said he didnt think so

yes i agree,im not into reissue stuff at all,it just devalues the original items.the majority of the time they are just cheap cash in jobs and inferior to the real thing but stuff like all the kryptonic wheels reissues were so similar to the originals that those really hurt the prices of the genuine ones,2nd gen kryps have plummeted since those appeared
