Bro.
plastic more work then just popping a amulet into a premade steel casing.
the steel casing is already made in factory in large amounts, v cheap.
U consider the poor guy doing the plastic wrapping by hand, having to smell burnt plastic, chloroform, etc..thats why need to pay more.heehee.
Careful when casing powder or clay amulets in plastic, the heat might damage the amulet.

I wanted a jatukam cuz heard good comments about it.. seems like it realli works

There might be some bros whom have emailed my friend regarding Jatukam and recieved a reply that the amulets range from $10 to $250. That is because the expensive ones are the older batches, limited pieces, etc.

YOu can definitely get a Jatukam at an affordable price.

Cheers

Hi Jacky,

I got it from FLS lvl 3. Well, i dunno how to see. But can pretty confirm the whole shop sells the real stuffs. The 1st one i got from them was a kun peng (which i posted the pic also). I had been to another shop to see and it was totally the same as this shop at FLS. They even let me see the book of the kun peng. Exactly the same.

Well, u can go check out. price to me quite reasonable.

As for the shops ones.. i do not dare to believe much too. After the comments by many collectors of the stuffs there.. i decide to take alook inside the shops.. their amulets.. u can quite easily see the different between a fake and real (if you have a real one) under comparising. Example the tiers the buddha is siting on of somdejs. The loops of the somdej.

And i saw an uncle wear thick gold chain with big gold case buying amulets there

All are my opinons ah.. buy at ur own risk =)

Those uncles wearing thick gold chain buying amulets there??? Haha...those uncles really cannot make it one la...can say most of their amulets is fake.
They often show off their amulets by hanging around their neck and guess wat amulets they have??? LP Parn Somdej, Somdej Toh Wat Rakang, LP Ngern Pitchi and etc...and if you really understand amulets well, those amulets cost a bomb!!!
Not all amulets wrap in gold case are real.

Hmm.. which shop is it? is it a small shop.. no decoration.. looks plain.. like half a shop only with a uncle about 40+ tending to it?

i still dun dare to buy from shops la.. pardon my ignorance.
