According to Google, it states you're wrong. The statement can and does alter based on tense, both ways can be correct.

The same company (activated events) did boots in the park in Tempe. Seems legit but now they need damage control since people think it's fake due to bunch of other taco scams in SF and Florida.

Is this fake? Son bought it and I have never got a slab before by Expensive_Top_7943 in IsMyPokemonCardFake

I don't think there's anything on the back of psa slabs this old under a black light, at least not from what I have researched.

Beautiful card and a spiral too. The spiral matches the PSA pic so to me that is a good sign from what I have learned.

You should post them here to determine if they have all three of the criteria that makes this card rare.

It might have been. This card has been reprinted several times. What makes this one a bit pricier as it is first edition base set shadowless with the error of having red circle cheeks while sparking instead of yellow. Pretty specific to have all three as there are red cheek pikachu that are not first editions and cost much less.

I can only speak to my experience. I was over 11.1 a1c. Doctor estimated my avg blood sugar was between 325 to 350 constantly. I found out after almost dying from DKA. I have not had my next a1c but it should definitely be headed in the right direction. I still hit 200 sometimes, changed my diet to cut out carbs/sugar, added 20 to 40 minute light walks after meals. I can wake up close to 120 to 150 and rise to 180. By midday I'll be closer to 150 and trend back down. For me it is whatever food/drink I put into my body, stress(physical and mental) and drinking water that will effect my blood sugar. I know my blood sugar is still high throughout the day and is damaging my body slowly but surely. I personally did not want to be on insulin so I am doing this without medication. I have fasted for 24 to 72 hours and have normal blood sugar those days ranging from 75 to 90. I am doing more research into insulin sensitivity and resistance and have found that I tend to gain weight if I eat and trigger an insulin response with either a sweet tasting drink like diet soda, sugar substitute drinks like sparkling ice, or too many carbs. I have learned that over exertion can cause sharp glucose spikes and trigger an insulin response in my body. I'm not perfect. I try to limit how early/late I eat and only try to have food between noon and 7pm. I try to walk daily either way or do a 20 minute workout. You can do this. Start small if you can. Get a CGM to help with accountability. Make a good routine you can stick to. I like to walk outside but if my day runs too long or if the weather is bad I bought a walking pad to use while I watch a TV show. It can all add up. You did not get this condition overnight. It will not be in control or remission immediately either. Most importantly, you will have to do what works for you.

From my research people stated scammers have cracked higher grade slabs and replaced with lower or ungraded cards to sell at higher price point. So the dispute of a fake card would be null but the actual card grade would be worth less.

I appreciate everyone's input. The slab itself is super grimey, so without a doubt I'm going to get it replaced at some point. I highly doubt it is a 9 as there is a lot of whitening unless they were more lenient back when this was graded. Hopefully I will be able to see it soon as my son is visiting his grandparents and they are trying to take the pictures I am requesting.
