not really, as I don't place a huge importance on the authenticity of anything limited to its brands or labels. for me, it's all about the character or series the product actual represent. granted, I don't buy bootleg figures or physical media, though that's mainly a quality concern. I will chase official when available at a reasonable price and buy bootlegs if the listings are closed and the aftermarket sucks- there's no point in paying someone on yja 30k yen for a daki cover when the artist doesn't get any money from it. in that regard, i treat otaku shopping like I do with collecting video games where I'd emulate something if the ebay prices are not reasonable. That's the general gist of how I approach this, but this might be a video topic for a different day.

You don't seem to care much about buying only official otaku goods.
