I woke up this morning to an email from a website that acts as a ‘middle-man’ for Chinese exporters/wholesalers. Someone there thought I would be interested in buying Tintin products at some very reasonable prices. And the prices are reasonable. The problem is that they are all fake. Some of the items appear to be made really well – others not so much. What is crazy about the email is how bold these people are and how willing they are to show-off how they can cheat Moulinsart.
I am not going to link to the site and the image below has been altered so no one else can find these nefarious ne’er-do-wells. The lesson of the day: be careful who you buy from.
One of hundreds of fake Tintin toys.
