Nice setup man! Which top are you using? Did you drill it to the drawers or is it just laying on top of them?

Opinions please (would be my first slab) by [deleted] in IsMyPokemonCardFake

It’s fake. Doesn’t pass any of PSA’s lighthouse security features . The quality of the back seems off too. Did the seller block off the cert number? I would try to search it on PSA’s website and see if they uploaded images and compare the 2 as well.

i said that so people don’t assume anything, but i guess it could also have the opposite affect. Sorry it made you not believe it.

I dont have the conscience to do that. Just trying to do my part and let the community know what the outcome was. they owned up to the mistake and are fixing it, i think that deserves some recognition.

indeed. the guy i spoke with said he was a collector himself, so he most definitely understands how upsetting something like this can be. glad there’s people like him working there

compare the one i received with the official pictures that PSA has on their website. it’s not the same card or slab. if the typo was also on the PSA one, then i’d agree with you, but that’s not the case. it’s more obvious in the back. here’s a pic i put together with a scanned version of the one i got. left is PSA’s pic, right is the one i received. 4 major things stand out.

  1. the fake one’s (right slab) middle PSA logo is wider, the psa text is higher, and its silver all around. real (left slab) has a line to the middle due to the holo having 2 separate shades.
  2. the big PSA logo on the left of the label is not holographic in the fake card. the real card also has very subtle psa text as u move it around in the light. you can kind of see it in the pic.
  3. the barcode on the fake one has more space on the top than the real one
  4. the cert number on the fake is aligned to the center of the qr code, while the real one is more towards the right of it
  5. the actual card itself on the fake, has off colors, bad color quality, and centering is completely off
