I correctly guessed on the Goblins based on the blurriness of the fakes, but I wasn't confident at all. This time I'm going to guess the top four cards are all fake because the color seems off, but again, very uncertain.Originally Posted by prateta
No, 9 cards, 1 copy of each. Sorry, it's night in my country now. Here is another lousy quality picture. Tomorrow when I get to some well lighted area (my flat is kind of a hole), I will make proper pictures of all 9. And as promised before, scans on saturday and review sunday/monday.
Can you guess what's original and what's fake on this picture? :-)
It's hard to tell because of the blurriness of the picture, but i would say the top Ruins, Revelation + Snapcaster and the lower Deed are fake.
If I had to guess, I think the top Rev is fake, the bottom deed, ruins, and snap are fake, also.
The lighning really makes it hard to tell, but I go with top Ruins and rest bottom fake.
I just realized tag I bought an Academy Ruins from years back. The card name text seems to be smudged. I thought it was just print error but it could be a fake.
I don't know how to feel about this as long as I don't get DQed playing it.
I am convinced that WotC is "dumbing" the game because of all the stupid posts they come across on MTG-related forums
According to the '34 act, a security does not include antiques or collectables. Anyone with a web crawler could chronicle the completed price range of any good or service on ebay or pricewatch, stick it on a website, and profit from speculating on price fluxations; that doesn't make it a security.
Too much wear on the edges of the bottom cards for them to be brand new fakes, imo. If I had to guess, I'd say the top 4 are fakes, with the possible exception of the Academy Ruins.
Actually, if you look at the bottom edge of the Pernicious Deed on top, it seems like there's a similar pattern of chipping to the Pernicious Deed on the bottom. It's just more noticeable in the latter picture because of the angle and the lighting.
Something seems fishy with that Snapcaster in either case.
I think that there is only a fake card, the Sphinx's Revelation. And there are only four different cards, but the user took two different photos, to compare the brightness.
All of them are fakes. Those chinese are getting quite good. Online trading won't ever be as safe as before this. (well safe-ish)
Yes, forgot to mention. 2 photos, 4 cards only. One with normal mode + flash, one in HDR mode.

Chinese fakes!
I'd venture that the top two are fake based on the spacing of the oracle text.
oh thank god
I thought I was gonna lose it. "I can't tell any differences between the top and the bottom cards. I'm gonna go bend test every card I own until it creases now."
The proper plural must be "hall of fames." You wouldn't say Halls & Oate, now, would you?
Wizards committed one of the classic blunders; never go in against a Chinaman when debt is on the line.

If you really want to get a resolution to this problem, email Wotc and voice your displeasure.
You need cops, investigators. Ebay, TCGplayer and Card shark all need to be policed.
Who really gives a F*CK about $20 fakes.... Have you ever seen a cashier hold your $20 bill up to the light to check if its real? I worked at a bank and the only bills that we ever really scrutinized were the 50's and 100's. Obviously if the fake bill is just so bad to the naked eye that you can tell its a fake we would have an issue with it but normally you just take the money make the transaction and move on. Why does MTG get more scrutiny than our county's currency....

why cards are so expensive...hoarders
...
Why do the people that stand to benefit need to police the people that stand to lose, exactly?

Is that a white spot on the sleeve or did they indeed spell "Pernicioùs Deed" in the name?
Would this (voicing displeasure) actually help? I'm sure WotC is doing everything they can to shut this down. Unless you have specific info, I think this is fruitless.
You're implying that magic cards only cost $20.
