Hi Attom
Do fake smurfs sell in retail stores somewhere or are they a purely internet enterprise? I mean, can I go to a market in Prague and expect to find a dealer in fake smurfs sitting behind a booth?
In other words, if you didn't have ebay, but could travel anywhere for free, where would you look for fakes at?
[Hokay, the answer to this question is: "I would look in Hawaii", but I mean where would you look with a realistic expectation of finding them?
hi! Drunky
well I don't think there are really any retail or special booths for fakes only..except with me off course! hehehe
most fakes are found by accident at flea markets or thru dealers who sell
real smurfs items and have some fake stock as well, now that there is a market for them
I find them more since I search only for fakes..as a priority..
I've been hunting only fakes since I started collecting.. I sort of picked up
the rare or normal smurfs along the way as a fix to my addiction to get something!:lol:
so far Ebay is still the best place.. but alot of sellers don't admit or know they are selling a fake in their lots.. infact most sellers are not smurf experts...
the dealers that are experts..price fakes at a higher price.
