hi! I ordered a collector booster box that was shipping by amazon Germany. took some time to arrive. the wrapping seems a bit loose, and the seams much thicker than usual. is it likely to be resealed?

Any help or tips appreciated, thank you!

firstly, I just wanna thank everyone for commenting and helping me confirm any anxiety that I would have for a large purchase like this, I love this card, but it doesn’t have the eBay authenticity guarantee, maybe because my country doesn’t offer, I’m not sure to be honest, but any help would be much appreciated!!

I am really bad with double sided cards, usually I just use the T check. The blockiness of the holo is throwing me off idk if it’s my phone or me.

I was wondering if this Atraxa is real or not. The back looks correct aswell as the stamp but the front kind of throws me off.

Any help is greatly appreciated, thank you!

I just purchased this surge one ring from my lgs. I'm heading back there now ad they had another one and want to see if it's the same deal. The "T" and "h" are dead giveaways right? Thanks in advance, just trying to get confirmation that it is indeed a fake

Update: They checked it, confirmed it was a fake. They had another in stock and after thoroughly checking, confirmed it was legit and took the exchange. Owner came out to apologize and said it was a learning experience for him and his team. Ripped the card in front of me. I've purchased multiple singles (includjng all of my dual lands) and this was the first fake that I've gotten from them, so I'll chalk it up to as a "shit happens" type of moment. Happy with the resolution and that they destroyed it. Thanks for everyone quick responses

**This is basically an identical post from the mtg sub but I wasn't aware of this community until after posting the other. So if you see it twice.... my apologies.

I found a decent deal on a Soul Stone on ebay and picked it up. When it arrived it seemed kind of off and slightly thinner. I started checking to see if it was a fake and several of the typical tests passed just using my phone to zoom in on the back. When I did a light test I can almost see straight through this thing compared to what I am used to. The second image is a different card from the same set just for comparison.

The guy says it was bought from a local store of his and opened from a pack but I already got a return submitted for it.

I just want to know if there is a chance this kind of thing is real and card quality can be that drastically different from the different printers?

Edit: Reddit doesn't let you add images after posting. I have added more shots in comments.

Purchased this off eBay, my first time buying a slab. These marks at the bottom of the slab are concerning. How do I know if this is a legitimate slab or I've been sold a fake? Or if the slab has been tampered with?

Multiple photos of the brush so you can see the "beak" which I was only just informed of.

Hello guys i bought this card but noticed that the border fo the title is a different color then a normal mtg card.

Know this is a popular card being faked, so need your help to figure out if this one is legit or not.

Just for this Card today. The back is 100% real, Not sure about the Front

Thank you!

Went to a LCS in another town and got this card. I havent delta with final fantasy cards and wanted to know if this is real

Everything else looks good minus that one spot

So I've got this foil Rhystic Study from a friend a while ago, but I'm trying to sell it now. Since it's quite an expensive card I wanted to make sure it's real before selling.

However, although I've been actively playing for about 6 years now I still don't have any clue on how to check wether or not a card is legit, so I could really use some help 😅

Have had for a few years and am just wondering. Don't really understand the tests but will post what others have. Was the best i could get with my phone.

Okay so I don’t understand how the t test and green dot test works. I have some cards that look like counterfeits I bought from TikTok shop for $20 I am CLEARLY writing proxy on them to not confuse myself or others, because it was a good ass price for a lot of random proxies.

Now, I have a mix Sapphire that I KNOW is a proxy, and thus, I wrote proxy on it (first 3 pictures)

Pictures 4/5/6 is elspeth suns champion, a card that I know for a fact I have that is real.

Pictures 7/8/9 is a fabled passage. I do not know how to tell the difference, can someone please let me know and exactly what you are looking at. Thank you.

EDIT: thank you guys so much! I had bought the 324 piece proxy set from TikTok for $20 and was using them in my decks and forgot to write proxy on all the ones I added to a deck, now I have them all written on. I appreciate the help thank you!

Just recently got my 4th dual land, gonna switch it between dinos and dragons, looks good at first sight but would love a second opinion. Thank you.
