round 3 ek1 , remind these to avoid fakes!

[ben bijker]

Round 3 crosses are nice, rare and expensive.
And there is a lot of crap being offered at half the value.

Memorize these, or store them on you pc, smartphone or whatever other devices you might have, and save yourself some money!

These are the only 3 variations that one can buy without hesitation.
Never seen another original so far that isn't exactly like one of these 3 shown..

Don't forget!

You're welcome.
since the number of originals is very limited, it is pretty easy to see what is what ...

But pics are always better then text.

[Woolgar]

Thanks Ben! I have been trying to save for one of these forever!!

Just buy one if you see one, and sell some of the "regular" stuff.
It works......

Good advice.

If you see one grab it.

You might not get another chance for a long time.

Exactly Wayne!
The regular stuff can always be replaced.
But a round 3 ek1, well, you don't get the change to buy one every day.....
