In case it was real, 30 GBP was definitely a bargain ... :eek: ...

Yep, real IMO as well but luckily not a one-off, as far as I know more than one copy exists. A bargain for the buyer nonetheless (unfortunately not me) :?

Well, even a faked proof (if it's a proof, indeed) takes a bit of work and material easily worth 30 GBP ...

Or have things changed so very much :?: :lol: ...

A proof wouldn't have a barcode.
Any more of that and we'll be round your front door with the quick-setting whitewash and the shaved monkey.

Why not? You can easily use a bogus bar code, just to see where that ugly white spot will come in the whole concept.

We do that all the time ;)

East West wouldn't use a random bar code so an easy check would be to use a service like GEPIR, which will tell you who was registered to use that specific bar code number.
