Bootleg anime merchandise

Post by Namahage » January 30th, 2014, 5:44 pm

Have you guys ever bought any bootleg anime merchandise by accident? What are your thoughts on bootleg merchandise?

I try to keep my anime stuff legit, but these days, it's not always easy to tell whether something is real or fake. At anime conventions, 99.99% of the time guests of honor won't sign anything that is bootleg, so keep this in mind.

Yeah, I saw that spam wave too. It seems like this put the mods and admins on edge and thinking that everyone without an avatar, or who has certain things in their posts or threads is a bot. Thanks for not deleting this thread though.

I have some bootleg dvd's. Ever since I made that mistake, I've been sure to try and find anything that isn't a bootleg.

It really takes off from the quality, doesn't it?
