How to identify counterfeit sales;

1. The price will be ridiculously below a retail price. Even if a sale says that its "discounted" or "on sale".

2. The Black box, "uncut" NSFW box, and promo card set were only released during the 2017 Kickstarter campaign which had 33,720 backers, it can be assumed that there could be 60 or 70 thousand (maybe 100k) authentic copies of each in the whole world. No legitimate sale could have stock items in the hundreds or thousands of units.

3. Photos are obviously not real or are "stock" photos from legitimate sources.

4. Seller will not provide any "proof of purchase" or proof of authenticity - Ask a seller for the measurements of the base boxes.

5. A lot of sales will have hidden comments that state they are counterfeit to try and legitimize the authenticity of the sale.
