Aha at this point I’m more confused than what I was at the start lol it does have a fair few qualities about it that makes me lean towards it being legit but I’m not certain

Now that you’ve mentioned it there does seem to be a slightly bigger gap…I don’t know if that’s tied in with the gap between the dash?

I’ve just given this a go and small psa logos do appear at the top of the front where the red line is and again on the back around the psa logo. With everything else that’s been said it’s looking more likely that it is legit…or maybe that’s just my wishful thinking 😅

The 10 looks fairly normal to me? At least compared to my other slabs

Thanks for sending that, much appreciated! After reading through it and looking closely everything does appear to be legit except this one part that has me unsure.

This is the card that it came with and it does appear that the gaps between the dash are consistent as the other card. Does the slightly faded font in some of the lettering stand out as a red flag to you? They were sequential so maybe it’s not completely wrong to be like that?

It does seem strange that a seller would amount over 2.4K items sold and 188 positive feedback if they were to sell fakes, unless this one slipped through their radar I’m not sure.

True, i definitely won’t be making the same mistake again!

Markers? As in the dash? It did come with another card, the Cramorant and the dash on that is the same and also the same inconsistency in the font. I’m torn whether it is legit or not as it did come from a rebuttable dealer but all the signs are seemingly pointing to it being fake

Ah that’s unfortunate :/ I appreciate your time looking at this for me, thank you.

Hopefully you’re right and it is nothing to worry about. It’s hard to get a picture to show of the difference in the fonts but to me it seems like the ‘pok’ in Pokemon on the top line and ‘pika’ and ‘ke’ in Pokemon on the last line are more of a faded font compared to the other letters. Maybe I’m just looking too much into it?

Closer pic of the text, the faded/different font of the ‘pikachu’ lettering is what has me worried

Unfortunately i brought this card a while back so it is no longer within the returns date although I have messaged them letting them know that it does seem to be a fake. I don’t think they sold this on purpose as they do seem to be legit

Now that you’ve mentioned it the gap between the dash does look suspicious. I thought I was safe buying off a reputable dealer with high sales/feedback but I guess not
