Hate to sound like a jerk here.....but sticker residue does not make a genuine factory sealed card.
Back in the early 90s you could quite often buy items from dealers that had their own price stickers attached to the cards, more careful dealers applied price stickers to bubbles and if you were really lucky you got your figure in a comic bag.
I also now predict that we will see mint carded figures damaged slightly and stickers etc applied to try and be passed off as shop bought items.
I have heard people say "Its from a good source that doesn't trace back to Toni" c'mon how do you really know? These have been going round for over 20 years now.
exactly mate and you could just nip down to asda or infact any shop right now or of course your own food cupboards and peel off a few little price stickers put them on the cards wait a couple weeks for residue to attach to the card a bit and peel em back off voila job done price sticker evidence back or front ,bubble or card :| few light scratches bit of edge knocking again job done :| as for vectis are they really that anal they will only ever buy Proven childhood collections? and how is it they know thats the case for fact without having access to a time machine and the ablity to watch your every move :roll: i cant believe if i turned up with a pile of vtg moc they would turn me away if i could not provide full history, surely just about every vtg moc out there could be said to have been part of a childhood collection .and to me those vectis ones look a bit TT made to look otherwise , of course i could be wrong
