For me the thing is only a serious collector is going after a Yak Face. Your average newbie isn't going to dive in with a Yak. By the time you know what a Yak is you're already that far into collecting you're either accepting of repro or not.
Anyone DUMB ENOUGH to buy one of these has no one to blame but their self. If he we was churning out Vaders or Luke Farmboys I'd be a little more concerned. As it is, this piece of **** is held together with ****ing magnets, so its not as if they are going to be hard to spot.
That's not to I say condone it, I think he's just trying to make a quick buck and helping **** the hobby in the process.
Ebay doesn't seem to give a **** but in doing so makes the Forum a more important resource, which hopefully more collectors will realise and help it grow. Every cloud......
