VC Jawa

[Doomseeker]

Hi All,
What are your thoughts regarding this listing and have any of you dealt with this guy before?? The cape doesn't appear to have any texture to it and doesn't look snugg enough around the armpits? Good price though.

That seller has been selling Star Wars for years. If he thought that there was a remote chance that this is genuine he wouldn't be giving it away for that price.
I'd say stay clear mate

"ORIGINAL/VINTAGE Cape Material; but I do not know or guarantee it's source" = FAKE

That seller has a dodgy past mate Stay Clear

Im no expert so couldnt say on viewing it, however his wording is very suspect, like he is hiding something. There was a thread not long ago about an ebayer selling jawa capes cut from kenobi capes, it sounds to me from the guys description that its one like that :?

100% fake - or at least an Obi-Wan cut down cape

Sellers like this are pond scum praying on new collectors

I did a post on Rebelscum about this same item. It's def a fake and confirmed as a cut down obi cape. I would stay clear I'm sure he knows better than that because he's been selling for awhile now and some other auctions he list weapons as repro so he knows the difference, I would just stay away.
