oxyhacker:It's not the stickers that are fake, but the inspections. Since there is no legal or industry-wide definition of what consitutes a visual, or who is qualified to give them - the whole visual started out as a quick common-sense peek inside a tank to make sure there were no gross defects, meaning mostly rust in those days - there is no such thing as a legal or official sticker. There are plenty of generic stickers available, and if you go to DEMA you can even scoop up handfuls of sample stickers with the name of the sticker company instead of a dive shop. While some dive shops will not accept generic stickers, many more won't accept stickers from shops they don't like. So there really isn't any such animal as a fake sticker.
