Shopping for my first boat

[Mr T]

Hi everyone. I am new to rc boats and have been looking at
the classifieds and have a question. I found what appears to
Be a good deal on a df33, but do t know how to tell
if it is the real thing or a clone. What should I look for
to tell the difference? Any advice is greatly appreciated.

Thanks

Do you have a link ?
So we could see what you are looking at or some pictures of it ?

[Mr T]

Looks like the add has been taken down...

According to the forum rules the seller is required to identify the hull as a DeltaForce hull or a clone. Perhaps that had something to do with it being removed....?

It was on RCU and I don't think they have those rules.
Are there any tell tale signs on the clones or does it just take a trained eye to tell the difference?

Thanks
