How to Spot Authentic Limited Edition vs. Fakes
Sadly, knockoffs flood sites like eBay and Amazon. Here's how to verify authenticity.
- Check the tags: Official merch has a woven or printed tag with the CaseOh logo and product code. Fakes often have sloppy stitching or missing tags.
- Inspect print quality: Authentic designs use screen-printing or embroidery with crisp lines. Fakes have jagged edges or off-center alignment.
- Verify source: Buy only from the official store (store.caseoh.tv) or authorized retailers like WhatWhat. Avoid third-party listings with stock photos.
- Compare materials: Official hoodies use 80% cotton/20% polyester blends. Fakes feel thinner or stiffer.
- Look for numbering: Limited editions often have a hand-written numbering (e.g., "23/500"). Fakes skip this detail.
Red Flags
- Prices significantly below retail (e.g., a $60 hoodie for $20)
- Seller with no reviews or generic username
- Descriptions that mention "replica" or "reproduction"
If a deal seems too good, it probably is. When in doubt, ask the community on Discord or Reddit.
