"I did not realize that so many people would attempt to fake an EXP model."

When a foreign made slide with no markings sells for maybe $100, and a frame with only light markings sells for $200, and a genuine US&S "exp" could bring close to ten grand, a LOT of people will attempt to turn out fakes. Of course, some laws will be violated, but that is of no concern to the fakers.

(The last time I posted about fakes, someone put the blame on modern "lack of morals" and "corruption in Washington." But it's nothing new; many of the "ancient Greek" sculptures in the museums are fakes, made in Italy to sell as bragging material to the rich guys in togas.)
