- Appraisal slips are the inspection documents you fill out to verify each item's authenticity before pricing it.
- Check every field: serial number, product name, manufacturer printing, physical condition, and indicator lights.
- Confront strategically: only call out confirmed defects so the seller lowers the price instead of walking away.
- Perfect scores require matching all slip fields to genuine reference values before submitting your estimate.
- Cheat sheets help, but learn the genuine reference values so you can appraise without external tools.
What Are Probably Stolen Appraisal Slips?
Probably Stolen appraisal slips are the core inspection mechanic of the game. Every item a customer brings in — from Immunovax injectors to Ribwich packaging — arrives with details you must verify against known genuine specifications. Your job is to check each field on the slip, spot counterfeits or defects, confront the seller about problems, and then estimate a fair price. The more accurate your slip, the better your payout.
Each slip breaks down into several verification categories:
| Slip Field | What to Check | Example (Immunovax) |
|---|---|---|
| Serial number | Type it in and match against reference | 3276332 |
| Product name | Exact capitalization and spelling | "IMMUNIVAX" spelling |
| Manufacturer | Logo/printing correctness | Carmichael Pharmaceutical |
| Physical condition | Color, cracks, damage | Genuine green body, no cracks |
| Indicator lights | Expired or empty status | Expired indicator light |
| Packaging (food items) | Logo, date, sticker, patty layers | Dalvey logo, 7429 date |
Filling the slip accurately is the difference between a 100% appraisal score and a wasted transaction. Skipped fields mean missed defects, and missed defects mean overpaying for junk.

Step-by-Step: Filling an Appraisal Slip
Follow this workflow for every customer to keep your appraisal accuracy high and your profits higher.
Identify the Item
Select the matching entry in your reference material before touching the slip. Wrong item reference means every comparison afterward is useless.
Enter the Serial Number
Type the serial exactly as printed. A mismatch between the slip serial and the item is an immediate red flag for a counterfeit.
Verify Labels and Printing
Check the product name capitalization and the manufacturer text. Counterfeits often get small print details wrong — compare letter by letter.
Inspect Physical Condition
Use the magnifying glass. Confirm the body color matches the genuine shade, look for cracks or damage, and check any indicator lights for expired or empty status.
Confront and Price
Present only the defects you confirmed. Once the seller acknowledges them, the price drops. Then enter your estimate — a complete, accurate slip typically lands a perfect score.
If you are unsure whether a detail is genuine, look it up rather than assuming. A false confrontation can sour the deal, and a missed counterfeit costs you the entire margin.
Item Reference Tables
These quick-reference tables cover the two most common appraisal categories. Memorize the genuine values to speed up your inspections.
| Immunovax Check | Genuine Standard | Counterfeit Signs |
|---|---|---|
| Manufacturer text | Carmichael Pharmaceutical, printed correctly | Misspelled or blurred print |
| Injector body color | Genuine green | Off-tone or faded color |
| Body damage | No cracks | Visible cracks, dents |
| Indicator light | Active and valid | Expired or empty light |
| Serial format | Matches reference range | Random or reused serials |
| Ribwich Check | Genuine Standard | Notes |
|---|---|---|
| Plastic packaging | Sealed and closed | Opened packaging lowers value |
| Dalvey logo | Correct logo placement | Compare side by side with reference |
| Date (month/year) | Printed, e.g., 7429 | Missing date is a red flag |
| Two-digit label number | Printed, e.g., 30 or 14 | Verify against sticker |
| Bun and patty | Plain bun, single patty, normal pickles | Double patty or extra pickles change the price |
| Sticker | Must match when present | No sticker on plain variants |
On standard inspections, correctly matching every slip field and landing the right estimate yields a 100% appraisal rating, which maximizes your payout for that transaction.
Cheat Sheet Tools: Spoilers vs. No-Spoilers Mode
Community-made inspection cheat sheets let you select the item you're appraising and click through each verification field. They come in two modes, and knowing when to use each keeps the game fun while staying efficient.
| Mode | What It Shows | Best For |
|---|---|---|
| Spoilers | Full answers plus the total price | Learning reference values, speed runs |
| No spoilers | Checklist of your selections only | Practicing from memory, fair play |
In spoilers mode, you input details like the serial, logo status, and light condition, and the tool confirms each one and calculates the final estimate — a Ribwich with standard attributes, for example, appraises around 150–230 depending on extras. In no-spoilers mode, the tool only records your choices, so you must consult the in-game handbook yourself to determine what's missing before confronting the seller.
Most cheat sheets open in a browser on your phone or computer, so you can keep the checklist beside your game screen while inspecting items with the magnifying glass.
Use spoilers mode for your first dozen appraisals, then switch to no-spoilers. Within a session or two you'll recognize genuine colors, logos, and date formats on sight — and that's when your appraisal speed truly takes off.
Daily Appraisal Routine & Checklist
Run this routine on every customer to build consistent perfect-score appraisals.
Every-Customer Checklist:
- Identify item and pull up its reference values
- Type and verify the serial number
- Check product name and manufacturer printing
- Inspect body color, cracks, and indicator lights
- Confirm packaging details (logo, date, sticker)
- Confront only verified defects
- Enter final estimate and confirm the score
An expired or empty indicator light is one of the easiest defects to miss and one of the most reliable price-droppers. Always check the small light on injector-type items before pricing.
FAQ
Q: What do Probably Stolen appraisal slips actually do?
Appraisal slips record every verification point for an item — serial number, printed labels, physical condition, and indicators. Completing the slip accurately lets you spot counterfeits and defects, confront the seller to lower the price, and submit an estimate for a scored appraisal.
Q: How do I get a 100% appraisal score?
Match every slip field to the genuine reference values, confront the seller about each confirmed defect so the price adjusts, and submit an estimate that matches the item's adjusted value. Standard Ribwich inspections, for example, can score 100% when all packaging checks pass and the estimate is correct.
Q: Should I use spoilers or no-spoilers mode on a cheat sheet?
Use spoilers mode while learning — it confirms each field and shows the total price. Switch to no-spoilers mode once you recognize genuine values, so the tool works as a simple checklist and you do the real verification yourself.
Q: What are the most commonly missed defects?
Expired or empty indicator lights on injectors, subtle color differences on bodies, and packaging details like a missing date or mismatched sticker on food items. Always use the magnifying glass and check the small light before estimating.
