Re:Known sellers of fakes on eBay 14 Years, 9 Months ago Karma: 2  
Hi Willie,

It hasn't been updated since May last year (2008).

I have not reviewed each of these sellers or looked for new ones to add.

If you (or anyone else) has additional information (name changes, additions or removals) please let me know and I'll look into it.

Many thanks for your help, Sam.

I reviewed all sellers today and all but the box sellers have no active listings.

There may be other sellers - please add a post if you find one.

Do you know anything about eBay Seller "limefaa" looking at his location it says he is in the UK but on his feedback page it says Russia. Selling Cheap and has lots of copies of each Mini he is selling.
I guess they are russian fakes.
Tony.

No Willie, they change their identities quite regularly and often list the item location as perhaps London, but then when you look at their location, it is Latvia. Recent additions seen include:

limefaa (London, but based Latvia) - DEFINITELY FAKE SELLER

This seller is selling this definitely fake item. This album has never been released on mini LP ( http://www.sliver.it/nirvana/test/pages/counterfeits/bleach_deluxe.html ) AND this seller is from Lithuania - I live here and I know that no one here would have so many copies of a legitimate mini LP. http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=110556551952

alionushka77-sold me fake item on ebay 13 Years, 9 Months ago Karma: 0  
alionushka77, also known as Diablo's Den. British seller just sold me a fake Russian "genesis-invisible touch", was supposed to be NEW 1st edition 1999.

Obi strip was very good except no REAR printing. Was missing Virgin's "25 years" insert. Album art slightly fuzzy. The disc itself looked home made, the number in the center of the disc was random.

Re:Known sellers of fakes on eBay 13 Years, 8 Months ago Karma: 0  
About Fakes - have you noticed how the fake seller does describe the mini LP itself ? They never describe the item as being from Japan or a japanese import or JPN release. They just list the item as a mini LP - even thought they provide a picture with an OBI written in japanese and such.
That way, if the poor buyer notices that he has just bought a fake russian counterfeit copy, the seller will tell the buyer that he never said anywhere that the item was from Japan. Neither did he represented the item as being from Japan. A clever but not so subtle way to sidestep the eBay system - since they do not allow counterfeited material on their website. Anything from Latvia, Lithuania, the Russian Federation or Finland I stay away from.

Fake Led Zeppelin - 40th Anniversary Definitive Collection (Zoso Box) (Led Zeppelin)
WPCR-13142 (fake) : 2009-01-01

This fake Led Zeppelin 40th Anniversary appears to be made in China. You would find it hard to pick a sealed copy of this as being anything other than than the real deal.

Inside it is also remarkably similar but has some significant, obvious differences in packaging including: (a) the CD comes in a flimsy loose fitting bag (b) Physical Graffiti has no cut out windows and (c) III (3) has no turning wheel.

The CDs also have the tell tale extra ring in the middle but this is much better disguised than usual.

Unusually for fakes these have the catalogue number and an IFPI code (CC 303) on the silver side of the disc.
