Another eBay Special - Vivi's Persistence

Howdy all - back with another sus ebay purchase. I know I should just spend the extra few to get it legit but I'm a sucker for a deal. Ran this under a microscope for T and Green Dot. Both look good I think? But there's just a weirdness to the card I can't put my finger on so looking for judgement!

Is this Lotr precon real?

Bought off Amazon US a Food and Fellowship Lotr precon and cards are very strange, darker and rougher than the Lotr cards I own bought in Italy.
Here some pics.

Thank you!

Gold Stamped Promo?

I saw a listing for the following. What’s a gold stamped card? Is this a promo? I can’t find any info online.

Fake Avacyn Cavern of Souls

I received a clearly fake Cavern of Souls from TGCPlayer seller ATXChest, a seller with a. 99.8% rating. Beware and always check cards as they come in!

Is my Cloud (Full art Foil) real?

Is my T looking straight enough, and my green orb, toothy enough?

(Turned off HDR and turned RAW on)

Pretty sure it's real but just want second opinions

Real or not?

Hi! These beta scryb sprites I’ve bought seem off. I’m not sure if the photos are good enough to tell. Hope someone can help. Thanks !

First revised duals - assure me!

Hi team,
Bought revised tundra and bayou from card market. I’m pretty sure they’re real but I’d really appreciate the hive mind to look to put my mind at ease as I’m doing my best to not regret a months rent on 2 bits of cardboard!

I hope these are clear enough - it’s hard for me to take a photo with a jewellers loupe but heard phone photos can be zoomed in well enough. If this isn’t good enough lemme know and I’ll get loupe photos sorted. They pass the light test, I can see red dots under the loupe. The backs are a different colour to modern day cards but I imagine this is expected?

First three are the bayou, second 3 the tundra. Thanks all!

Urza’s Saga oval foil is damaged is this a reback?

Everything looks real except the oval foil it feels raised more than other cards and is obviously damaged but I don’t have any other cards from the set to compare. It was sold as lightly played.

trying to validate these store bought singles

hey there folks!

hoping to check if these store bough singles are real. I know the cards are not expensive themselves, but I did buy about 50 or so that had the similar markings as I'm collecting the entire set (therefore, want them to be all real).

My biggest reason for checking is that I've never seen white markings on the *middle* of a card before, only on edges (they were sold as NM). Made me think they could be cut marks from proxies. I'm new to the single purchase part of the hobby, so not sure how to validate for sure.

I've added pictures on two cards if that helps. Did my best with iPhone camera, not sure if that's enough.

thanks so much for all your help on this in advance!

Is this Smothering Tithe real?

I‘m 99 % sure it’s real, everything looks good to me.
The only thing looking a bit weird is the H but I think it‘s just the pattern of the background overlapping.

Is this card real?

I was a little suspicious and I’m not exactly sure how to tell. Sorry if the pictures are poor, I’ve never done this before.
