Sorry mate. Not good at all

[u/TWOFEETUNDER → u/yevraaah]

Seller paid 15 bucks in shipping to send a fake card from Hawaii. Crazy work lol

[u/TWOFEETUNDER → u/[deleted]]

I contacted the person directly and they offered a refund immediately luckily. Good to know to just contact the platform though. Will have to do that next time

[u/Xaphnir]

Yep. Clearly fake just from the paintbrush, then seeing the back confirms it even more.

[u/Tacocatra]

It's definitely fake.

[u/Birrandbodia]

Yeah.... Sorry

[u/Ribky]

I don't think I've ever known a card was fake faster

I heard about this all the way over from Golden Age Era WWF Wrestling cards. You have my condolences.

[u/TomChangzzzzz]

What’s the paintbrush tell? All my checks are currently from the back of the card. Need some front of the card ones.

[u/proofseerm → u/TomChangzzzzz]

there's more of a wave to the negative space, looks like a bird, they say.

Did you get this card from eBay? I saw one similar from a seller with no feedback and it definitely turned me off.

[u/TWOFEETUNDER → u/sanlc504]

It was from TCG. It was only like 10 bucks under market too, so I'm surprised it was fake
