🚨 Counterfeit problem on AliExpress keeps getting worse, more shady listings, staged photos and stupidly low prices that scream "buyer beware."

How not to get burned: check seller ratings and reviews, ask for real photos, save chats and receipts, and open a dispute if the item is a FAKE, demand a refund and don't be shy protecting your order.

Today’s Hobby Trends on Instagram: "🚨 THE COUNTERFEIT PROBLEM IS GETTING WORSE 🚨 AliExpress continues to pump out “DIY” custom cards for pennies… And some are getting scary good. Anime-style Prizms. Custom Downtowns. Fake inserts. Unlicensed parallels. Even cards showing up in magnetic holders with what appears to be a Panini-style seal. Most are sold as customs. The problem starts when they enter the secondary market and someone decides not to disclose that fact. A new collector scrolling eBay, Whatnot, Facebook, or a card show table may not know the difference. As card values rise, counterfeiters get more sophisticated. Collectors need to be more careful than ever. 👀 Have you seen any of these in the wild yet? #sportscards #thehobby #tradingcards #panini #psa"

Just a reminder about the associate dangers of buying cheap tat from Amazon, Ebay or a myriad of online ‘stores’ where bugger all attention is paid to certification (beyond forging a kite mark) and who will take no responsibility for the goods that they have sold.

More than half of the chargers failed electricity safety checks conducted by Which (a UK consumer protection group).
