At least until I opened it up.
The two numbers at the bottom right of the label were there but they almost looked like they were printed on instead of indented like they were supposed to, which was odd. The lettering on the plastic was SO CLOSE to the original, but the font was just slightly off…
At this point I was still questioning it, because the label had the right amount of wear, and because WHY WOULD SOMEONE COUNTERFEIT BARBIE?? XD But then opening it up confirmed to me that it 100% was counterfeit, I’m guessing a pretty old one.
I made a video demonstrating some of the signs here.
Only counterfeit I have is FFTA, and they refunded me immediately and didn’t require me to send it back, and it still works, so I gave it to my little brother for his GameBoy. Worked out pretty well, and I now have a legit copy. Well, I had one as a kid too, but that one is long gone, so now I have another legit copy.
:D I’m glad it worked out! I was able to get a refund from the nice seller without any issue.
