Thanks for posting about these.

I noticed he states his Jawa has the textured cape.

I didn't know the repro capes had gone this far.

The fakers are getting better Shawn,there's nothing stopping someone buying from this guy & then passing them off as originals later. :twisted:

Yep I am trying to sort out my capes now- and it is ****ing painful. I've come across 2 so far that I am 99% sure are repro but have a zip/textured side :evil:

He's not being totally honest is he? It's a case of reading the small print as usual. He should mention REPRO in the title me thinks.

 

[DarthStanley]

You're right bez,the title is misleading! :twisted:

 

[Jukesy]

totally agree, if theyre repro's then this should be stated in the title!

Agree 100%

What is funny is how for years the Lily Ledy cardback templates were protected by collectors from recarders. However in the last few months the templates have hit various forums and low and behold they are now been sold on eBay.

For me its a prime example of why rare original cardback scans shouldn't be made available for recarding purposes but once one person gets the scan (even if its for genuine purposes for thier own collection) its ultimately gets passed on to others and then put on forums like FFURG which has got numerous LL cardbacks over the last 12 months.

For scammers like Nathan Edwards its like Xmas has come early. :|

Just my personal opinion on the matter.
