This thread lists most of the fake throws created up to date as the circulation of these in BST can cause uncertainty for some trades. - **If you’re worried about your trade** , use the Imgur links to see the closeups and compare these with your throw as most differences can be identified from _laser engravings, surface finishes and machine cuts_. If you’re still worried, feel free to send me a message and I’ll see what else I can find to help. - **Disclaimer:** I’m not the seller or creator for these throws, and pls don’t ask me to buy for u 🙂 - By all means, fakes are imperfect and can be identified, so please don’t buy or sell fakes… **A-RT:** [Grail](https://imgur.com/a/4DXsMBf) [Triptych](https://imgur.com/a/RtKRa2x) [Life](https://imgur.com/a/iYv4Yfd) [420](https://imgur.com/a/lwdGozw) [Chassis](https://imgur.com/a/2mszJbY) [Sparrow](https://imgur.com/a/bdw8nrh) [Diptych](https://imgur.com/a/mmLRyUL) [Door Knob (SF)](https://imgur.com/a/e4icV0G) [Sucction (Unprld)](https://imgur.com/a/cNseTBy) **C3yoyodesign** [Radius](https://imgur.com/a/Rp1v9tz) **CLYW:** [Chief V1](https://imgur.com/a/uNEtFGH) [Cheif V2](https://imgur.com/a/5HfqTJN) [Scout](https://imgur.com/a/p8kl9F3) [Canvas](https://imgur.com/a/6HpAMNj) [Cliff](https://imgur.com/a/VxuoPdX) [Borealis](https://imgur.com/a/nOeGrV8): See [comparison post](https://imgur.com/a/xRU3fcP) **Duncan:** [Barracuda](https://imgur.com/a/IRJnLXS) **OneDrop:** [Summit](https://imgur.com/a/2TgWTwT) **SF Yoyos:** [Movement](https://imgur.com/a/CXHcIOY) [Statement](https://imgur.com/a/5ktJrRF) **Something by YoyoAddict:** [Phaser](https://imgur.com/a/Xj95w3D): See [comparison post](https://imgur.com/a/WZPMggi) [Anglam 2](https://imgur.com/a/ra4IyW3) **Turning Point:** [Mustang (Titanium)V1](https://imgur.com/a/8lDSJn5): See [comparison post](https://imgur.com/a/Nruf40Z) [Mustang (Titanium) V2](https://imgur.com/a/RXYXFbc) [Mustang (Titanium) V3](https://imgur.com/a/r7C7VeM) [Mustang (7075)](https://imgur.com/a/1BD97tB) [Mustang ES (6061)](https://imgur.com/a/Bh2V5TT) [BGM](https://imgur.com/a/5XrCkvr) [Hinemosu](https://imgur.com/a/p55xvy4) [Chameleon](https://imgur.com/a/RqyAEeP) [Isotope 2](https://imgur.com/a/a8VCzft) [Colony](https://imgur.com/a/UC4WKsJ) [Palpitation](https://imgur.com/a/eoL4PI4) [St.Elmo](https://imgur.com/a/JArIOGt) [Pouch (green logo)](https://imgur.com/a/pvBQi5x) **YoyoFactory:** [Shutter??](https://imgur.com/a/YB5MtoH) **Yoyorecreation:** [Draupnir V1](https://imgur.com/a/m0sYdra): See [comparison post](https://imgur.com/a/mbj2sXV) [Draupnir V2](https://imgur.com/a/UIszftY) [Sleipnir V1)](https://imgur.com/a/pGZxBW2) [Sleipnir V2](https://imgur.com/a/OIuDbFN): See [comparison post: 2nd horse release in 2012](https://imgur.com/a/D5qPuB3) [Sleipnir (Other Versions)](https://imgur.com/a/7ib43so) [Dazzler](https://imgur.com/a/G9wzxTq): See [comparison post](https://imgur.com/a/sZC6ZoS) [Onslaught](https://imgur.com/a/Tgi0HLb) [Stargazer V2](https://imgur.com/a/PBG74rf) Messiah Overdrive \*_There is another [thread](https://forums.yoyoexpert.com/t/ratfacedudeguys-handy-dandy-guide-to-yyr-authentication/33467) on YYE that thoroughly explains how to identify YYR fakes, and there are comparison/closeups there for Messiah, Overdrive, Sleipnir Take That._ ---

Indeed, but for dazzler and draupnir it is identifiable just through images because of the engraving. ---

Ahh I see your point. Japanese and Chinese are quite similar so it’s confusing 🙂 We share the same currency symbol (¥) and character (元). So the prices are in Chinese Yuan. ---

Chinese dudes. No offence to chinese yoers or chinese people in general. Production in China is pretty cheap, so for them it is quite profitable, at least in small numbers. [Next page](https://forums.yoyoexpert.com/t/fake-throws/341562.md?page=2)
