Counterfeit Spotting Guide gives four numbered tells any buyer can check in a minute: the stitch count that holds at corners where copies wander, the ACME hardware stamp deep enough to catch a fingernail, the serial embossed inside the lining pocket and nowhere else, and the price floor that names a new unit under $180 as a confession. Below the rows, where fakes actually sell is named honestly as marketplace listings and social ads, never stockists. The serial check card closes the block: email the serial to real@acme.com and a person answers same day, including for secondhand buyers.
Tells are one array, channels are a two card grid. The secondhand buyer sentence is the block landing the scope it is designed for.
Reach for this block in the brand story or linked from product pages where marketplace listings compete. The same day serial check must be staffed and the address monitored for it to be honest.

Tip: “A new one under $180 is not a deal, it is a confession” is the sharpest line in the block because it teaches buyers to see the price itself as evidence.
