Question about the old school atari hi-score patches...

[Mattiekrome]

Is anyone out there a big time collector of these? I would like to start collecting them, but I dont wanna get ripped off. It looks like they would be quite easy to reproduce a fake patch that could look exactly like the original. Just wondering, any help will be greatly appreciated...

Oh yeah, heres a link to an auction on eBay to show what Im talking about.

I don't have a complete patch collection but I'm not far off. I've never seen a counterfeit (that I know of!) but there are other patches that are not Activision that you might want to check the origin of before bidding.
