Is China now making error cars?

[PopeMobile]

Starting to see error cars popping up on ebay that I'm suspect of. I am thinking the counterfeiters and backdoor specialists are now "creating" their own error cars to increase their value. Here's one in particular -->

The same seller has listed several other error cars as well.

Interesting question... I've seen error Cars almost the entire time I've been collecting... it does seem that there are more and more of them these days... packaging errors don't mean as much to me as they used to... although I do have one in transit.

But when you see a Guido and Luigi on a Marlon Clutches McKay cardback, and Marlon on a Guido and Luigi cardback, and Suki on a Race Team Fillmore with Headset cardback and Race Team Fillmore with headset on a Suki cardback, you have to wonder.

I think the most suspect thing, aside from one HK seller having several of these, is the fact they're a double error.

Vitaly Petrov on a Vladimir Trunkov card (despite the Eastern European names, about as much twins as Arnie and Danny DeVito) AND a Fillmore insert suggests "made for profit".

Also the name tags on the front look a little disheveled to me and not quite aligned right. In recent months we saw the counterfeiters release most of the haulers as loose versions. I'm thinking they may have moved on to the next thing. The error car market, which I love, is usually not very expensive but if one were to 'create' really interesting error cars I'm sure the unsuspecting would bid them up thinking they have found a great one for their collection.

Are you saying that the Mattel factory are creating some errors? Check my collection, I have a Mack on a Materhosen cardback.

Okay yeah this guy is up to something. Seems legit, You don't "accidentally" put Suki on a 2014 Fillmore card then put Fillmore on a 2014 Tuners card. http://www.ebay.com/itm/error-card-D...item23320a52cd

if they did make it to get rich it backfired on them as it cost a whopping 99 cents on ebay

Nice error, Carslover. It is a mixed card because it has an American card, but an International Nametag.
