The stickers on toys are ALWAYS authentic too (We sell stickers only for customers) - Our parts, provided with our toy are strictly original parts.
In some very rare condition, if not : It's clearly written on the itemfile. - We try to sell at fair prices and adjust price when it's possible , we study all the sales to be competitive. We prefer describe the item default avoiding deception than praise the quality.
