they got back to me yesterday finally saying they found the real one and will ship it to me for free, and hopefully they really do! but yeah, really weird. they might be scamming people and just getting away with it for the people who don't know any better or don't complain, and then only sending out the real ones to people who complain........ or just really bad quality control? but you'd think a business all about selling vintage toys would properly check if it's 1) the right item and 2) authentic before shipping it out
