I bought a Smiths LP and a Paul Weller LP on ebay recently from a seller in the U.K. When I received them it was obvious they were counterfeit.
I sent the seller a message and he immediately refunded my money and let me keep the records. I guess he didn't want to take any chances I would report him to ebay. On Discogs there are countless listings for counterfeit pressings of all kinds of music. They don't allow it to be sold there, but they document the fakes. They are everywhere. Even my local record stores sell fakes. What makes me mad is they have absolutely no collector's or resale value. Might as throw your money away.
