Fake CAP insignia on eBay

The stuff LaFond is making is starting to tick me off............I am waiting for him to start producing more stuff now that the the Hock has ceased

I bought two pieces in January from his original listing, just because I was curious and they were inexpensive. According to another buyer, the quality has been going down since then. He said there was some kind of "paper backing" used on some of the latest ones.

If continuity was an issue for some people with the Hock Shop, they DEFFINATELY don't want this guy making actual uniform items. Despite noticable lack of quality, the thread colors are AT MOST within the same spectrum range of an actual patch. And their sizes and/or aspect ratios are different. He apparently also can't do a merrowed (round) edge with his machine. The backs are also very different from real patches.

These obvious flaws and differences in his pieces are somewhat good, in that they can be easily identified as fakes when able to be compared to an authentic patch. So far, there have mostly only been one of each, and I think I have pictures of all of them!

And...don't tell anyone but, if any seller gets a certain amount of negative feedback/low DSR scores, they can be NARU'd just like that. Not saying it should be done, but just saying. He seems to keep his customers happy, worst he had for feedback is here:

Looking at the toolhouse page provided, there is no negative feedback, but several that are listed as neutral

Exactly, basically all dealing with the fact that these are reproductions, but not mentioned in the listing. You can use that as the logic for reporting him for misleading listings, or you can buy and neg him for selling crap.
