with some trading card series, people can tell the region of an authentic card just by look and feel. So even authentic cards vary by origin, production run etc., so how can a replication be identical to the originals, when even the original manufacturer is unable to fully replicate all details consistently? Yes it boils down to comparing know original to suspects, with the problem of how you can authenticate the reference but hey: PSA takes money for their service of rating cards. It is their problem and if they can not solve it, they simply should not rate cards they can not authenticate.

Most people like him dont offer advice or help to people looking for it but i managed to get a hold of him and he was more than happy to answer all of my questions. Hes a very helpful and intelligent guy, and I wont forget that. Thanks man.

As an original yugioh player, I recall some first edition classic cards from Pharoah's Servant that were course in texture, but they were opened by me from a legit pack from a well known retailer (like walmart, target, toysrus), and some were very dark orange in color on the back, but the rest of the cards in the pack (same booster) were not and were smoother in texture. It's just hard to tell sometimes from stuff back in the day.

The issue was there was a huge legal issue between Konami and upper deck the US counterpart to Konami. Upper deck kept making cards with out Konami’s authority making cards with odd rarities. There’s a series of different rarity types that upper deck made that are not correct. I’ve played and collected Yugioh cards I’ve come to know the difference between fake and real cards the older it is the harder it’s to tell. I have several starter deck Blue eyes white dragons and some are real and two are fake there’s a faint red shown under light it’s a brownish tint to it.

What an absolute fucking joke. PSA should be absolutely ashamed of themselves. I can relate to you man, I've had to return probably 10-20 orders in the last month alone from TCGPlayer due to counterfeit cards, and it's beyond frustrating. I've had sellers try to hassle me and claim that they're selling legitimate cards when an experienced collector can tell straight away. I've always been curious but reluctant to send some of the fakes I have received to PSA because I've always been afraid of exactly this. And if they can't even authenticate properly, AND try to push you away... Wow. Just wow. I'm tempted to switch to BGS for grading because MTG collectors primarily use that, but I'm honestly afraid if they could even tell either. Don't ever stop this channel bro, you're doing a service for this game and the card collecting hobby. Thanks for the great videos.
@erdvilla8 жыл бұрын
Aren't those the "Original fakes"? I mean, the ones made by Upper deck themselves, that brought all the shit storm on them from KONAMI when they found out that they were distributing legit cards and counterfeit cards as well (using the original designs but maybe with not the perfect ink mixture). Because someone at UD realized how much money it could be made by selling the oldest 1st edition sets to "selected" stores who would then give them a fat kickback after selling them, when of course those shouldn't be printed ever again to keep the value of the legit ones as high as they would naturally go over time. With the super HD scanning and printing techniques now at the hand of many more it is pretty obvious the market will get flooded with high quality fakes. It is not only PSA, most grading brands have trouble with newer stuff, take NGC for example; after some serious trouble by grading fake Chinese coinage at their beginnings they decided to stop grading any Chinese Republic coinage until a few years ago when they finally got the machines and experience necessary to spot the 1 legit among the 999 fakes in submission; and now those CR NGC graded coins are worth A LOT.

I know with Magic the Gathering cards there is a certain inking pattern to look for as well as the fact that lettering on the card is added in a second layer which doesn't match the base inking pattern for the rest of the card. I don't have any fake Yu-Gi-Oh! cards to inspect unfortunately.

To summarize: Konami simply DOES NOT have a way to ensure that your product is authentic. People, and even stores, are prone to buying a FALSE product. Maybe a path would be: 1 - Generate a unique serial number for EACH card produced. 2 - Create a database system for CARDS and for CUSTOMERS, where the customer provides his name and reports to secure email, and ALL CARDS HE PURCHASES COULD BE REGISTERED IN HIS ACCOUNT. Thus, when he wanted to sell to a store or even to someone else, he could verify the authenticity of the card and, by selling it, could transfer possession of the card to the person through the konami system. But the konami just wants to know easy money and no quality work, what to do? ...

I have pulled out first edition cards straight from an entire booster box and there is always color variations and blatant issues where the printers were not properly oiled and cleaned. The gloss that they used back in the day fades over time, so just beware that using gloss as a measurement tool is not always the best methodology for spotting counterfeits. I worked in the printing industry for many of years and can tell you first hand that when you are busy, you will cut corners because sales team always over sales regardless of workload and current client expectations.

Plot twist, the authentic card he's using for comparison is actually the fake one.

Highly appreciate this video man. Is it only lob cards that are appearing like this though ?

As far as I know, it's only with 1st edition LOB

I remember these fakes with the red/orange backs, it's super noticeable. My cousin bought some packs of MRD at a kiosk in a mall and we noticed right away they were fake. when we were kids we had the original booster boxes from lob and magic ruler so we knew a lot. unfortunately as kids we played with the cards so much and never used sleeves. But yeah I always hated the fakes. only old schools can notice right away I guess..

I haven't played yugioh in years but I clicked this video for whatever reason and afterwards decided to go through my old collection to look for fakes. I must've been swindled soooooooo many times as a kid because holy crap there was soooooooo many fakes lol.
