Hard to say.
Looks real.
I have not seen a fake ogre before.
Though I am no expert on clacks.
-
Nubs is master of ogres, perhaps he will know best.
-
It looks real to me. It's an image, though, so I can't tell if it's a drawing or real.

listed here before same seller. What about the chip is that okay?
As you know I am new here, what do you guys advice. I got $150 to spend on this, it's my Christmas gift to my self, or should I save up for a candy corn skull?
-
Looks like a Gummyrot to me. It would be up to Clack to say if it's fake.
-
Looks real.
It has the correct ClackFactory Stamp.
-
It is certainly a design that was made.

Are we allowed to discuss prices in the open here. If so does $1-5-0 seem like a good bargain in your opinion? it does have a chip after all?

Yes, we are free.
That is a good price these days imo. Some people may say the chip is an issue, but it wouldn't bother me. I mean, it's on the bottom side. Without it, perhaps the cap would be worth $200.
-
For what its worth, one of my CLACKVENT caps came in with a chip on the backside.
So yea it happens time to time, but your clack looks legit.

$150 isn't too bad a price, but it's hard to call it a bargain

Whats a good way to protect my self on the transaction. I never done this kind of thing before.

Use PayPal.

Use PayPal.
Goods, not personal payment.

Absolutely this, otherwise you have 0 protection.

Okay Ill try to figure it out as goods and work things out with the seller, see if I can get a price bargain. Is this a popular clack? I really like it to be honest.
Ill thank all you amazing people now, for the help. I hope he was decent and waited(he is a cool guy), I heard after my post here he was approached :D

Popularity is something relative, I always say if YOU like it then it's the best one in the world :cool: and even if it's expensive use it, it was meant to be used :cool:

This ogre was on eBay recently I recognize that chip
-
I had a freak chip on a Miz Kite a little less bad than that. I used my trusty keypuller I always use on artisans and regular caps, and the thing just chipped a tiny bit anyhow. Prob just a small imperfection. No big deal, especially in that location.

Didn't sell:

I don't know why mindoculus started it at $200. Makes no sense. Start it at $1 and it prolly would have gotten near $200.

I saw a pic a few months ago from ripster and it displays K3KC sculpting a bro or a clack on some kind of sculpting material with some fine dental tools.

That picture was bull. He just held the tool up to a already molded piece.

It looked like it was sculpted and was made of wax though. I don't think it had the letter markings on the clack copy bottom

He cast a wax copy and pretended like he carved it. He's a hack.

I guess I have a lot to learn. I bought a cap from him once when I was newer and I felt like i was an ass for supporting him with my purchase once I found out all the drama behind it.
-
Just an update here. I never received the clack! I have contacted the seller and waiting to sort this out. Fingers crossed :(
