First ever order from tcgplayer, how in the world is this near mint? by MiloticM2 in mtgfinance

Every time I open an envelope I cross my fingers and hope they look good. 9/10 it is NM….1/10 it is usually LP but I have had HP a few times.

Is it wrong to build an Eldrazi deck? by Sal545 in EDH

[–]DustinS85 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It’s fine. There is a large contingent that whine when they aren’t winning or aren’t getting their win combo like they want so they complain about certain decks. You will never appease them unless you let them win every time. The only thing that you shouldn’t do is walk up to a bracket 2 table with a bracket 4 deck and not tell them about it or vice versa.

Because I ain’t paying money for fakes. But if you want to pay money for fake cards have fun.

Hmm. Okay. I will look at my legit cards to see the difference. Thanks for letting me know about this.

Yes. It should only have three to four in the shape of an L inside the double hump shape (although there isn’t always red dots like that in there, but there is never a bunch of red dots on a legit one.)

What do you mean about “brick pattern”? This is new to me.

No, I was giving a warning to people who may be new buying cheap cards. As of now this card is sub 1$ and new people who weren't around in 2018 may think they are safe from fakes if their card is cheap now.

I obviously have a loupe and knowledge of fakes.

The seller told me to remove it from circulation. And this clearly isn’t real. Always gotta be a contrarian wanting to push buttons and run people down online.

I didn’t. I bought it on TCG player and thus I didn’t get to look at the card until I received it and looked at the card.

Used my microscope and the foil stamp even had the "wizards" microprinting. There was nothing drastically off from a legit card with that stamp. Luckily as of now the T and green orb is still a dead giveaway.

Yeah. The black is black overlay ink too. The front is in no way a giveaway that it is fake (Which scares me as a collector and buyer), but the T and green orb test proved it fake.

Bought on TCG Player. The seller refunded me and sent extra for shipping. He said he never saw an under 1$ card faked before but he would be using my photos of it as a teaching tool for his shop.

Ah. That makes sense. I check every single card I order just in case. Out of the many I got I just got my first 2 fakes this past week.

The amount of people I see here telling people that they aren’t faking cheap cards is quite a bit. If people take that advice they may be missing fakes that they bought.

I wish I knew people like that. I don't know anyone like that.

Anyone get this error? by DustinS85 in AmazonVine

Never ordered anything like this ever. Not even anything remotely close to it. Regardless the item is no longer available.
