Right, but eventually they will be casting these in India, just like repo porcelain signs. Very difficult to distinguish from real. If it gets to the point the $$ is good enough it will be produced to be passed off as real. Many people prefer original and will pay for them. Many people "save" them because of their rarity. If the general public can't tell the real from the fake, we all lose in the end. NOS and original parts value decline, replaced with NORS. We all know the various problems of NORS. Plus guys who buy and sell "hordes" of parts will face a tougher time selling them. Imagine if you bought on good faith some "original" parts, resold them only to have them be repo's made to pass off as real. Loss of income, reputation, etc, etc.

Just want to be sure I have Originals so I can, in the best and highest faith,state that they are for any future owner.
