Oh gee, its from Singapore, must be real :)
Hmmmm it\'s from Singapore and the seller only shows a picture of the front ::)
Fake. :P
I think the right person to ask whether its fake or not is the winner of the bid. I\'m not sure if it was a good idea not to bid on it, but I didn\'t. :-/
It is sure fake.
yup if you checked the feedback from another buyer
Saint Etienne - I Love To Paint sold to me was a fake copy! I got refund though

^ Spotted that one, yeah. Just adds more weight to the suspicion that this seller was indeed offering a fake here.
Yet another fake:

Yeah I know now about fake copies. I\'m a bit of a new bucketbot sorta. Well not really since I have been getting alot of Big Bs albums since fall of last year.
Hexachord is the man on the NTT fakes. I would trust him with this important knowledge. ;D

Would this happen to be another fake?
I\'d say it\'s fake - but am not sure.
Even if this is fake, I\'d pay $0.99 for it.
Well, actually I asked a few questions about the matrix code and - whoops - I\'m no more permitted to bid. Strange, you say?
If there was any doubt about this one being fake...
Has he stopped you being able to bid on this?
Sounds like shifty behaviour... ;)

How can you tell if it is fake by the Matrix code? Please share this knowledge.
On real ones the code will be on the back of the disc (shiny side) and will say something beginning with the word "RAINBO" (can\'t remember the rest, I\'m sure HexaChord will correct me). It will also be backwards, as if the text had been mirrored. On Fakes tis isn\'t so.
Also, on most fakes you can see the Matrix Code from the red/orange face of the disc through the paint.
I think that\'s all...
Yes:
Fake:
Matrix code non-reversed from silver side of the disc and you can see it through the orange side
Real:
Matrix code reversed from silver side of the disc and you can not see it through the orange side
Thanks...this is very helpful info.
