I can't believe I have not checked that back then. 
Also, ebay.de is flooded with these fake steelbooks. Obviously these are all very expensive because it's coming from resellers and they want do make profit. I have seen The last of Us - Part II fake steelbooks being sold for 80€+. And of course they're often being advertised as genuine steelbooks.
I know that many of these fake steelbooks do have different designs, but in case of the Titanfall 2 steelbook it is completely identical. It even has the trademarks from EA and Respawn Entertainment on it's back. And to be honest, even as a collector I do not know by heart which steelbooks came wrapped and which were never sealed.
The simple fact that I can no longer be sure to buy a real steelbook when I'm buying sealed steelcases is so discouraging for me, that I'm really taking into account to stop collecting steelbooks. I basically completely stopped browsing ebay for steelbooks because of these fake ones.
How do you guys feel about this? |
Can you share some photos of T2 fake steelbook?
