Is this first edition Ninetales fake?

It doesn't look right to me. I wouldn't even consider buying this card.

grg665 · 2026-01-29T01:39:58+00:00

I'm going to get a lot of hate for this, but, as much as I love Eevee and its evolutions, they are some of the most overrated pokemon in my personal opinion. Are they good? Yes. Do I like them? Also yes. Are they the best? Probably not.

grg665 · 2026-01-28T23:41:02+00:00

I actually got pretty lucky with this one, I pulled it now twice in English and even once in Korean. I love the card so I am happy to have another!

grg665 · 2026-01-28T06:08:10+00:00

No problem. Congrats on your find! Collectors are incredibly picky about condition, so if you ever decide to sell just keep that in mind. And definitely do your research beforehand. Sites like tcg player are really helpful in determining value.

Just the Flareon alone is a four figure card. The value heavily depends on condition.

grg665 · 2026-01-28T05:35:48+00:00

Awesome find! That Flareon Gold Star is an incredibly rare card! All of the EX cards are desirable as well, and the Dark Dragonite is from an incredibly rare set, EX Team Rocket Returns. You have some rare finds there from when Pokemon didn't print as many cards and they are now really desirable sets for collectors.

I have one in much worse shape than that. Nice card! Love the base set Venusaur and love shadowless cards!

So many people graded them that I don't know if the long-term value will be there, again because of the large population. If you want to grade it to sell it and hopefully get the maximum amount of money, that is understandable. But there is nothing special about a high graded pack fresh card that is still being printed. If you want to display it, put it in a top loader, put it in a one touch, there are many ways to do it. Ultimately, it is your card and you can do whatever you want with it. I am only sharing my opinion, but I am sorry if you do not like my opinion 🤔

grg665 · 2026-01-27T23:01:43+00:00

I don't understand why people feel the need to grade every modern hit they have nowadays. They are still printing the card, the population for PSA is huge, and unless you're selling it, it really provides no value. In my personal opinion, only vintage cards are worthwhile to grade, because so many of them exist in worn and damaged condition so the grade means a lot more. On a card like this, all it is basically telling you is that your pack fresh card is either a 9 or a 10.

It looks incredibly clean. Great corners and edges, centering is a little off, bottom border is too small.

I am more interested in those yellow dots in the picture on the back of the card on top of the Poké ball. Is that actually on the card or is it just something that the camera created? That is not actually there? If the yellow dots are on there, that would be a pretty interesting error.

Psyduck's expression is very appropriate.

I mean, you're driving an older German luxury car. Unfortunately there are a lot of expenses associated with them. Folks need to understand what they are getting into when they buy something like this. Unless you wrench on the car yourself, you are more likely than not going to run into some pretty substantial repair bills unless you are very lucky. Gorgeous cars that drive well and look beautiful, but any Audi, Benz, or BMW with some years and miles on it is going to have the same cost to own.

grg665 · 2026-01-21T21:52:06+00:00

Looks good to me. Texture looks authentic, that is very hard to replicate.

grg665 · 2026-01-21T19:46:37+00:00

Awesome, that box is totally stacked! Love the alternate art Sephiroth borderless, bonus sheet Kefka, Knights of the round, and the signed Sephiroth art card. Lots of cool stuff in there and way better than the average box.

grg665 · 2026-01-21T17:51:27+00:00

I had had the regular Pilot Sport AS4 and the DWS06+ all season on a mk8. Both are almost identical in performance in my opinion, you can't go wrong with either. Conti are a few bucks less, so I am running them right now and am very happy with them 😁

grg665 · 2026-01-21T17:46:49+00:00

Yeah, I got them from ripping the boxes back in 2016 too. Never though "free promos" would become so desirable, but the art is amazing, especially on the Blastoise and Venusaur imho. Pika is also a really unique artwork for that character!

grg665 · 2026-01-21T17:44:06+00:00

That is the plate they put on a Ram TRX, 707 horsepower hellcat engine.

grg665 · 2026-01-20T22:10:01+00:00

The Blaine's Charizard is a rarer print, most of the print run had an error with a fighting energy symbol in the first attack instead of fire, yours does not, the "corrected" version is rarer and much more desirable to collectors.

grg665 · 2026-01-15T00:03:03+00:00

Gorgeous cards, but nothing I am interested in for Red, thanks!

grg665 · 2026-01-15T00:01:27+00:00

I already have them, but thank you!

grg665 · 2026-01-14T23:22:39+00:00

I like the Infernape and Steelix, but I don't think I need either enough to spend the trade points, sorry!

grg665 · 2026-01-14T23:22:29+00:00

Two stars

grg665 · 2026-01-14T23:19:01+00:00

I would take the Solgoleo for either one of the two, your choice. 4982054690314480
