AFA Fakes?

Redemption · 09-24-2012, 12:47 AM

I read that afa graded some high end fake transformers toys. Also that people were faking the afa grading stickers. Are they doing this for the TMNT toys as well. Has anyone heard that happening with these?

I know moat do not like the afa grading idea but it was still a question I was curious about.

I have not. Remember to always check the serial number on the Toygrader website to verify a figure before you buy it.....that should stop 99% of problems right there. While peoplemay be able to fake a label, they probably can't upload It to Toygrader's server

Ive personally always been very leery about going to the afa. I don't have and figures I would want them to grade but I do have some factory sealed video games. I've heard a few stories that didn't speak to highly of them though.

I've heard many stories that do speak highly of them.
