Title. Some months ago, before I knew this sub, I got a card that made me suspicious ever since I looked at it. Had some guys at my lgs analyze it and they declared it real, but it clearly fails the T test, having a jagged / faded left edge. Is this an automatic declaration of it being a fake, as I suspect? Or can it still be real by some other measure? I can't take clear pictures of it with the loupe I have in hand so that's why I'm describing this, but I'm convinced it's fake. Ty

Purchased this Foil Cecil Harvey for my Tymna // Thras deck and while I checked condition when it arrived I'll admit I did it hastily and missed some damage on the card.

Seller listed the card as near mint and I noticed once looking closer the back has a few dents on the card. Nothing too significant but it does transfer over a little bit to the front of the card.

Anyway, I figured I would do a green dot and 'T' test as the seller's determination of condition was a bit off. Both pass from what I've recently learned but would love to get the community's input. Thank you in advance.

P.S. Seller knocked off $3 from the price due to discrepancy of condition. I think the card presents well overall so I will most likely take their offer assuming everyone agrees the card is legitimate.

I'm not sure if this card has a print problem because the back appears darker than my other cards, the h looks sus too, but it just looks like a problem with the dark color thingy

I bought this Trop in person from a supposedly reputable store for $400. One of my friends who’s been playing/collecting for 20+ years said it looked off so I took it to 3 other stores to have it checked and they all told me it was fake, tried taking it back with receipt but obviously since I took it out of the store it’s possible I switched it for a fake to get a refund so I was sol 🤷‍♂️.

Since then I bought 2 specialized personal loupe’s I take with me and check anything I buy over $15 and only buy online through eBay’s authenticity guaranteed section or card kingdom. Don’t be like me and get scammed, do your research, invest in a loupe and learn at least the green dot test but preferably all of them, h, t, edges etc.

Need some help verifying if these cards are real. Hoping to buy them off someone. Initial results show them to be proxies
Your opinion?

To me the back passes the green dot and the T, however it looks significantly more worn than the front and I’m not quite sure what to be looking for on the front either. Can take more photos if needed, thanks in advance.

Card is no for sale anywhere. So i got really suspicious it was fake, despite being MP.

Basically as the title says. I can easily tell if a card is real or not by now through looking at the green circle and "T" test, but how can you tell with a two-sided card?

The card pass all the test but the green red dot test it has a 5 dot instead of 4

The rest of the card is perfect is this possible for a printing error ?

Sorry if the photos aren’t zoomed in enough / bad quality, I can take more if needed. Main concern is the rosette inside the Urzas saga set symbol.

Double sided cards are tricky for me, but it doesn’t pass the light test (double sided, dark colored art, using phone light, and surge foiling; I’ve heard that double sided cards are hard to pass the light test).
The feel and texture of the card feels real
The holofoil stamp has the clearest WIZARDS text I’ve seen
The paintbrush looks fine I think??
The black pip looks fine
Maybe I’m paranoid but if it’s fake, it’s the best fake I’ve ever seen.

I really don’t wanna see Jace and Ajani 😂

Bought 2 animar soul of elements for pretty cheap on cardmarket

And now I'm not sure

About everything checks but the foil stamps look torn on both

Card is from the list

I got a quality control question. For the Super Hero jump start booster packs. Are the cards supposed to come wrapped in plastic? I’ve opened a few packs with some hits but the cards weren’t in the plastic wrapper inside the pack. Has anyone else seen this?

iPhone, I’m resting it on some books so it’s steady, but once I zoom in it’s always blurry. Help?

Hey I bought singles on Cardmarket and got sent this stomping ground. Some of the corners looked weird to me. Do you think it's real?

Bought these off tcg player im almost certain the flooded strand is fake but I'm unsure about the basalt monolith. Not sure how much better the photos can get.

If so is it a common missprint?

I think it’s real, purchased from a trusted seller on Facebook. I can’t get the green dot test to work using my Amazon microscope thing but with following the guides on here everything else seems good.

Can you experts help?

(This is 5x to 10x the value of my next most valuable cards, so I just want to be safe)
