I know no one has brought out the pitchforks just yet, but perhaps wait until KC presents his side? That PM to Sparky was three years ago. Maybe something happened in between.

Oh god dammit. Seriously, Keith is passing off Sparky stuff as legit too? Say it aint so..... :(
As sparkles said, the listing notes that the insert is repro, but was inconclusive regarding the liner and map. From the pics, the map doesn't appear to have the "not official" mark on it as the other map does posted earlier.  Someone earlier mentioned the case itself is wrong. Its supposed to be a double correct?

So for me... If the case is wrong and the insert is repro.... I would err on caution and assume that the whole package is repro.

hey Keith has done a lot around here and is a good guy, If i am wrong i will be the first to apologies.
and the other side had the "not official" mark.

look bottom line, these games are fetching way over $100, so you have to tell about all the details.
Makes me look bad in my eyes as people are thinking it is real and i made the damn fake.

Too confusing. Someone bought it anyway. I would say wait on Keith to say his bit..

i dont want to pile on, but i did msg him thru ebay on 3 Aug (4 days before the auction ended) to tell him that back insert was more than likely repro.  the listing was not updated and i didnt get a response.

It ain't you, it's the seller.  Your stuff is easily recognizable as unoriginal, so it's all on them to accurately describe it and not feign ignorance; this isn't any different than a seller that "didn't notice" a big scratch on a game disc, a missing page in the manual, etc.

I just dont want to think Keith would do something like that. It would be totally out of character for him.
