    If memory serves, isn't this guy notorious for selling knockoffs?

    All he sells is reproduction stickers, parts, and KO transformers.

    looks legit. Although it's always possible these days that those are bootlegs; comparing them in-hand with originals is the only way to tell for sure.

    BTW, to help identify those scummy sellers not disclosing the sale of bootlegs, I've always had to look beyond the listing - take a look at their sale and feedback histories (for their sold items). If you see the same parts being constantly sold, many times with the same picture & description, you're likely looking at bootlegs.
    Many of these sellers are also making their listings Private Auctions, which both hide the item sold in their feedback and the seller's identity, which blocks buyers from being contacted and informed they have just been scammed.

    Thanx for the advise.

    It seems kind of weird that he/she is selling a near complete Wheeljack but is selling the missing pieces in two different auctions.

    I'd have no problem shelling out 10 bucks for Wheeljack wings or spoilers - whether they were bootleg or real.
