At least the ancients are mostly awful quality fakes, but I assume you'd have to be a bit more knowledgeable to know the moderns were fake too. Katz appears to know exactly what they are selling. I've heard they blamed the lack of "collectors copy" warnings on the ancients on some sort of spreadsheet upload SNAFU, so already knew they were fake before the complaints came flooding in.</p><p><br /></p><p>It's interesting to see the different response on the different platforms.
