What makes you think it's a rip-off? Looks fine to me, unless I'm missing something.

Good idea to post all here, BUT, you should also include why it's a fake.

hahah gd job i looked on here before it got out of control ! i meant it was a rip off price .. u seriously dont think £16.52 isnt a ripp off for some stickers ? all those stickers would have been free .I would like to have them for free but i wouldnt pay more than £5 for any stickers its deppressing that the skate kids will pay all their pocket money on stickers .. now were doing the same (its not worth it ) ..and even if i thought it was a fake item would it matter that much that i was mistaken .. vultures damn !

i think £16 is a bargain for that set
they are not as common as you might think - and a lot of people collect MWA stuff.
that is one of the easier to find MWA releases and is a nice sticker sheet.
You have to remember, when you buy mowax/unkle stuff you are not just buying simple objects - you are buying stuff that a lot of people collect.
Collectable stuff isnt cheap, and its no different to saying "why is #001 of the beatles white album so expensive? its only a record!"
Stuff means more to different people. Ive seen that set go for over £30 before.
Also - i can't see how you can say its a rip off. Collectables are only worth what people are willing to pay, and essentially, on ebay things end up going to the person who wants the item the most. If you are not willing to out bid £16, then you obviously dont want it much.
Its only my opinion, so don't flame me

just to add, you mention that they would have been given out free.
a lot of stuff that is worht a lot of money as far as mowax/unkle collecting goes started out worth next to nothing - all mowax singles retailed at less than £5 or so, mowax figures retailed for less than £30 in most cases.
Even the unkle/cube magazine was given away for next to nothing if not for free at that exhibition.
the words are 'rare' and 'collectable'

its cool, i wasnt getting heated, i was just offering another side.
Its a common subject that people discuss. Unfortunately there are two types of people who are into mowax/unkle. The type who collect, and those that listen. Both types generaly do both, but fall more heavily into one or the other.
It is a shame for those that purly listen to the music, that they happen to enjoy music that is collectable and therfore expensive, but the expense can make collecting more fun.
Its all good.
