Just saw this on E-Bay. Looks genuine from the photos, however the photos are a bit grainy. :eek: :eek: :eek:

Doesn't look guinine to me... curved thumb cut is too small, cross is not visible, not mentioning any inscriptions, seller has no experience by shipping out outwards USA and has had no feedback yet.

Correct me if I am wrong... it's still early and with my sleepy eyes you never know... :wink:

It's fake indeed (no cross).

But even the fakes are rare ;D

As I said, I checked these photo comparisons you just showed, but I didn't find a difference with a cross.

Compare also the offered Japanese damage done on the ebay with the link of cellthree and look than to the curved thumb cut...

This is the answer received from seller concerning ROGI:

"Is that the PAE-03A and PAE-03B? Is that what your looking for?"

For 10€ you could bit, but 100€ (or 300€) is crazy... Don't think seller is awere of fakeness... maybe he/she is... who knows

Indeed.....hard to tell for someone not well informed. He might have paid a lot himself...

I sold one Japanese fake copy a year ago on Ebay (I also told it was fake :wink: ) someone payed ~130 euros, the starting bid was ~35 euro

I've heard (a long time ago :eek: ) only 500 Japanese fakes were pressed, but I think that there has been some later pressings..

Allright xfloorshowx, thanks for info! 500 is "rare" indeed (cf. Peter KJ...). Like someone said on this forum earlier, hopefully they are not reproducing boots with characteristics of genuines, that will be a problem for collectors...
