Tried searching mr spyglass and didnt find what im looking for. I know some kits didnt have coas, like artist kits, seconds, older ect. Is there some kind of registry out there showing those kits and their coa status? Or if there are general rules of thumb for knowing could someone simplify for me? I know with bb kits most havent had the chance of being copied but id love to know for future second hand kit purchasing. Thanks!
Unfortunately BB kits being copied
Yea im keeping up with which ones are popping up so far. So ill not buy those handful of kits second hand without some kind of proof of authentication. But id love something to reference when someones selling any bb kit with no coa. Ill check if its been copied first and foremost. The ones i know of so far are

I think, not 100% sure, that all realborns have COAs, but artist made kits don’t.
Seconds don’t have a COA.
Ah, true! I didn’t think of those.
There are a few limited release artist kits that have COAs.
I think Naomi Pratt was limited. The ROSE show kits were also limited.
I think BB tries to crack down on fakes/copies. You might be able to email and ask if it’s a fake. Or we could try to help you through the forum
