Glad you brought up that point Bill. I've owned my TR-5 for over 30 years &
have seen only 3 or 4 other REAL ones in my entire life.
A fake is a fake is a fake, no matter if it's a painting, firearm, sportscar
or whatever. It's fine untill someone tries to pass it off as an original, &
btw fraud is very much alive & well in the collector market (mostly high-end
stuff)
Just my opinion, not to offend anyone,
Glen
