Brompton frame sticker missing
Hi all, I am going to view some second hand Brompton's this weekend,
one of which appears to have the factory standard sticker missing from the seat post.
I have reasons to trust the seller as they seem to be an enthusiast, they also say they have a receipt for the purchase from a well know bike shop a few years ago.
This doesn't bother me too much, but just enough to ask you guys! I'm wondering if there's anything I can do to verify the frame, it's year of manufacture, and to double-check it's not previously stolen etc. for peace of mind,
Has anyone ever bought a Brompton with the sticker missing, and do Brompton issue replacements to suit the exact bike?

Thanks BromptonINrio - I checked the frame number - all OK,
however the serial number sticker was missing.
I was curious to know if the serial number sticker can be reinstated, I'll ask Brompton.
