Is this slab a fake?

I’m not quite sure if it’s real or fake, I found it in an old box of cards in my attic. What would the value be if real and would it be worth it to grade it?

Is my card fake?

I think it’s weird because they kept the sleeve on the card, but love Charizard, so bought anyway

First graded card purchase. 

151 Zard, is it real?

Just bought these, they’re not fake right?

Hello friends (again)

i had just bought these four cards off of ebay which im not very keen on doing as i know ebay in general is not a reputable source to buy cards from...
however, i could not find these four (except for maybe the pokemon center stamped one) ANYWHERE else that wasnt some lucrative store with no reviews. im guessing these type of promo cards for unpopularish pokemon tend to not be stored by a lot of sellers lol eBay was my next best as i do know eBay has some sort of buyer protection as a lifeline.


im fairly confident that these are all authentic, though with my limited knowledge i want to be able to ask some of you guys just to be completely sure :]

My only suspicion was that the Japanese mega diancie card has a different holo foil pattern going over the text block whereas the English one usually doesn’t but I’d been informed that it’s normal for Japanese cards to have different holo patterns. 

Additionally, this seller on eBay (Katana Cards) has 99.6% positive feedback which is nice to know haha

Anyways, let me know if anything seems off, thanks!

Just bought these, these are authentic, right?

Is this a mistake that could make me a millionaire or just a blatantly fake card?

Real?

I’ve never bought Chinese cards before. Are these real?

Real or fake? 

<div class="md"><p>🤷‍♂️</p>
</div>

These cards r fake? (Im very convinced that they are)

Wrapping is a tad loose and weird bundle of plastic on Umbreon side but otherwise it looks legit. Thoughts? 
Item is returnable if needed.

Is this Lugia V real or fake? 

I like to buy packs from time to time in the biggest supermarket chain from my country. It is an official ptcg distributor. The thing is, in two separate occasions, months apart, I got two very weird full arts. They looked super dark, but I guessed it was a misprint and put them away. Last week some friends were checking my collection, and wondered why I had fake cards thrown in the mix, but I insisted I got them from a official distributor and I personally bought and opened them. The individual packs were sealed in the cardboard protector case btw. 

During the weekend this idea was tormenting me, so today I decided to rip one and I am more confused than before. It lifted like a sticker and separated from the cardboard. The sticker didn’t break with the paper. 

(The qr codes in the packs were darker than normal too, but worked perfectly fine in the app)

Are these fake? How is that possible?

Are these cards fake?

Mom got them for me pretty sure they’re fake but I’m just trying to confirm haven’t collected since I was a kid

Pretty sure they’re, fake but I’m new to collecting and trying to be sure

I bought 4 booster bundles off of Facebook Marketplace for a decent price and some of the hits from them are making me feel like it was too good to be true.

I’ve done the rip test on other cards and the black layer is there, the color and quality also seem to be good, I’ve compared them to other cards I got out of a surging sparks etb and the backings are right in line with quality and image. 

What do you guys think?

My 151 Charizard feels too good to be true.

Real? Bought from a local seller

I have a seller who wants to sell this for about $25. I can't seem to find it on price charting. Anyone knows if it's worth it? There is a slight bend on the right bottom corner as you can see.
