    Here is mine.
    As they were all unique plates, it's different from hers but here it is.

    I downloaded the pic and I'll compare it with the database picture (render or whatever) but I can't do it now because I have to go for a few hours.

    Any news from PayPal? This post is fascinating and heartbreaking at the same time.

    When I bought my Simpsons console I at first thought it was a fake. The console did not look like the press release photo. After doing some research on the web, I confirmed it was real.

    The way I see it that the problem is not that is as sticker but that is not one of a kind ( sticker ). Has the original design on the faceplate been mentioned that is painted ? Worst case, the original poster of the faceplate existance made the sticker and not only one but more than one sticker ... so if it is a scam, the origin on both faceplates it is the same.
    The only faceplate I've seen ( from official promoters, not counting painted ones ) not being a sticker is WarOfWorlds ( unfortunately I sold mine) . I spent alot of time examining the faceplate and I'm convinced it is not a sticker.
    The best painted /mixed custom faceplate I have examined closely and not being a sticker in my opinion is WALL-E - kudos to SpaceGhost2K and www.mypainteffect.com

    I am happy to say that paypal ruled in my favor after I sent the faceplate back to the buyer. However, paypal said it will take a few weeks for the money to go back to my account.

    If it were the real thing, I apologize to the seller however since I can't be sure, I thought it's better for me to send the faceplate back to the buyer and get a refund.

    I agree, that is a lot of money, I'm glad Pay Pal decided to give you back your money because you were not happy with the product you received, even if it wasn't what you expected.

    Sorry to hear that you got scammed. I got scammed once on Ebuy. I bought a PSP a couple years ago and they gave me on that was broken. I was so mad. I am glad that paypal gave you your money back.

    Yep, if you're not happy, you did the right thing, whether it was legit or not.
