On the Sunday we will have a lecture on Bootlegs.
Information
Bootlegs/Fake is Sad
Bootlegs are illegally produced fake items. You can find them everywhere, from DVD’s to designer bags to…anime merchandise! Even within our niche hobby lots of fake items can be found. This lecture will tell you about the origin of these items, what to watch out for and the consequences these items have for our hobby. This lecture also offers the possibility to ask question to a member of Fake Is Sad, the organisation that does the bootleg-check in a lot of dealerrooms at conventions in the Netherlands and Europe!
