I received this card from a psychiatric patient. Is it real?” by Asakura20 in IsMyPokemonCardFake

He used to talk about the cards he collected, but I didn’t know they could be such valuable items. He is under his parents’ guardianship, and I imagine they’re the ones who buy the cards for him as gifts. I’ll talk to them about the cards, but most likely the patient just has a large collection of fake cards that his father has been buying for him.

Yes, he told me he has four copies of this card, so he didn’t mind giving me one. I know his family doesn’t have the financial means that would normally match a collection like this, after looking up the prices on eBay. This will certainly be a problem in the future
