This looks real or fake?

Seen these for sale, quality of pictures aren’t great and none of the back.

I found my 12yo pokemon card and idk if they are fake or real, how can i know?

Hi IMPCF,

My 6-year-old is obsessed with Pokémon cards. Unfortunately, my Pokémon knowledge is limited to playing the "new" GO app with my now-college-age kid years ago. I knew nothing about the cards until I read your Fakes post. Thank you for the education! I had no idea! I have a few packs sitting in my Amazon cart that I won't be buying now.  

Anyway, 6-year-old brought home this card from a friend today. Based on the thorough Fakes post, I'm pretty sure it's a fake. Since I'm brand new to this, will someone please confirm this to an appropriate card for the beating it's taking during recess with 6-year-olds? It's already taken some damage. 

Thanks!

Fake, correct?

FB market deal. Sent me these outside of the original listing. One of those “too good to be true” things but it looks real to me, looking for second opinions.

Is this real

I’ve been a collector since I was a kid and have had these cards for almost two decades. I’ve searched them all on Collectr and TCG Player and the holo/fonts/colors look good to me and I don’t see any misspellings. They look and feel just like my “basic” vintage cards in terms of bend/weight/thickness.

I’m pretty sure I pulled the Venusaur and Lugia from packs and traded for Erika’s but it’s been so long I’m not certain. They’ve sat in my binder untouched for over a decade and I don’t think I ever actually played them. 

TIA!

Are these real?

Did I get scammed when I was 5? 

Hi everyone, I am new to collecting. Checking in to confirm if PSA case and the confirmation # check online is always a legit safe guard before buying charizard card/other vintage.

Is PSA always legit?

Hi. They look okay to me but perhaps someone notices something is off. Thanks

Hi. Can i get an opinion on those blisters? 

Purchased on Ebay for a decent price from a top rated seller, but since there's so many fakes, I wanted to have a confirmation if the cards are real or just fakes.

Thank you in advance.

Bought it on ebay, not sure if its real

This is fake, right?

The card underneath is a german charizard I think, not the card in question

Opinions on this charizard ?

Seller is asking only 400 for it, I've personally dealt with this card before. But I want a second opinion

can I get some input on these cards

Marketplace. How did I do?

Is Dragonite 192 Real?

Bought this on Ebay for around $4. The body of noivern feels glossy and slick, like spot gloss and the edges don't seem flat. Hard to get a pick of it but does anyone own a real one? Is it supposed to feel so glossy or should there be texture? Ty!!

Fake Noivern V

If anyone has any ideas what's going on with this card, I would appreciate it. I pulled this from a pack back when it came out many years ago, it's been sitting in a binder. I've posted about it before and most people said it's fake, it looks and feels identical to a real card, I've seen many fakes, but never any that are this identical.

 I sent it in to cgc to get graded and they said it looks real but they can't be sure that it wasn't put on a new back (I attached the email they sent me). For it to be lined up so poorly seems like a really odd and easy to avoid mistake to make for someone that was able to do everything else perfectly, the front doesn't seem damaged at all. Also the card is the same size as a normal card, it's just the front part that is slightly smaller (I attached a comparison) but it doesn't seem to be the borders that are smaller, it's the inner card frame itself.. and the corners of the front are rounded before being on the back as they are rounded aswell. 

I'm not sure how this could have happened in a factory.. it doesn't make sense for it to be real or fake. If anyone has any info on how this card happened, I would really appreciate it 😅

Thoughts on this?

What do we think?

Was looking through cards today and noticed this Vaporeon with no jungle logo. I was trying to convince myself this was base set but I don’t think it was (and doesn’t seem to be via Google). So what’s going on here?

Vaporeon without the jungle logo

Hey everyone. New to collecting. I can not tell if these are real. They may just be faded from sun/age but they have very little holographic on them and the Noivern does not shine at all. I appreciate any help.
