This video is useless

Bro... why u gotta rip an artifact? Rip a common basic land if you gotta rip but why a card with rules on it? God, we get back to mtg after a while and wtf? Even wotc's making "legit" fakes? Aye yai yai. Now I'm worried, did I buy fakes? Did I remember seeing a funky corner on that one card?

I'm having such an issue with authenticating some MH3 cards, the quality is all over the place. Some authentic cards even fail most of these tests.

Thanks I just got sent a fake from tcg. I've bought a good amount over the years first fake. Hope they fix it😢

i have never had a smart phone. you can keep your tracking devices

Don't buy squishy cards!

I just ripped my black lotus card in half to check if it’s real as per advice in video. It was real.

How come they where showing you old school cards with modern cards. When they where clearly Don afterwards. Also most intriguing is . Just copying the same method creates cards through a individual who past worked there etc.

You can’t get arrested they’re just cards no judge or cop is really going to put you under arrest over some little ass shit

Really sad you only have as many views. This is sad, because I wanted to spell quality but it wouldn't let that happen

Where did you guys go?

wizards make 0 money off people buying dual lands. fake them all! fuck the reserved list

Really helpful, thanks!

Loupe is the true way. Checking for the L shaped red ink dots in the green circle on the back. I walked into 2 friends trading. One tells me how happy he is to get a jace mind sculptor finally. Set version zendikar. Looked glossy, said buddy that looks fake, took out my loupe and no dots.. asked to over trade for it and im ripping it in half, on the condition its real trade stands, fake i get my stuff back. Ripped it and fake. Louis then went back and pulled out all the cards he traded from Sam before I walked in qnd there was dozens of them. Sam had unknowingly traded fakes which he purchased of card market the few weeks before so had to take it up with the sellers to get his money back. Louis and Sam now own a loupe.

Not trying to be a pessimistic here cause I appreciate what you are trying to do but I would be willing to be there are times you think something is fake and it is not and vice versa. A lot of tests beyond the magnifying glass are not good tests. The cards throughout time are printed differently. Even now people say fresh cracked cards feel glossy. So are they fake from wizards? The bend test is not bulletproof either because cars temp matters as an example. Age of the card matters. Condition. Etc. saying an old dual does not bend like a brand new card…well yeah that card was printed 30 years ago. The concern comes from putting this video out and now you flood the market with people saying “everything of value is fake” and if someone bends or rips and whatever to a nonfake…oops.

Some of them are hard. And some of them r real thin and sandy

I don’t use “fake” cards, but usually play proxy cards in our local community if it is allowed. But. Saying that don’t use fakes because of WotC will have less money?!? They are so fckn ignorant about the game and the community… why should we care about them? I know some use fakes because the price of the cards are extremely high on the competitive lvl. This is why I use proxy cards. I won’t pay hundreds of dollars for a few lands. It’s absurd and could be easily solvable by reprinting them again and again in every sets. But no. Wizzard lets some very basic and “have to have” cards to be over 50 dollars?! Or even hundreds? Yeah. Poor wizzard. They could easily create a land box set and earn a lot but they don’t care so I don’t care. I can print my proxies and enjoy the game without paying for an ignorant company.

Idc if it's fake. I just like collecting cards lol

Is there differences between EU and USA cards? I actually received a american bundle and they really seems like fake to me (I’m from UE)

27 piles in 10 bins

how do i use photo copier and a method of rotating cards automagicly

grüß euch! ich wollte mal die app ausprobieren, find die aber nicht im playstore (auch nicht samsung shop). nachdem man nach 2018 auch keine einträge mehr im internet findet, kann es sein, daß ihr die app eingestellt habt? oder bin ich nur zu dumm zum suchen?

These guys are full of sh!t

Cheers boys

Well I traded much of my collection for a fake media promo mana crypt

The reason why the fakes are getting so good is because the fake creators see videos like this. It's like ur doing a run down on what these scammers are doing wrong so they can fix their mistakes. Kinda messed up u can't share this kinda info these days without having that issue. Magic will probably magically disappear. Unless the creators come up with something unique and can't be copied. I'll be sure to use these techniques for now to help with that issue that's for sure.

Don’t really think buying fake reserved list cards is hurting wotc’s bottom line. In fact it might help bring people into cedh or legacy, which will bring people into the game. With that being said people who intentionally sell bootleg magic cards as authentic are scum and deserve criminal chargea

i have no issue with proxy/fake cards as long as nobody tries to sell them as real ones. if they look indistinguishable and someone says "these are proxies" no issue there. personally i like them indistinguishable from the front but with a different cardback (for example removing the mtg logo text and just having the blank cardback)

thx for the explanation n showcase 🙏 i was just started be the collector of MTG

I blame wizards for the fakes to be honest. Its a game more than a collectors item and holding onto things like the reserved list just b.c people hoarded cards like stocks pushed people out of the game which i dont like at all.

i still wanna buy proxy ture dual lands. i wont spend 1200 for those

Much sadness has arrived to me today...

I had to look this up i havr no experiance with magic cards and im buying already used cards for my bf. The guy thats selling me them is selling them cause he says he wants to get rid of them and idk i just want to make sure he isbt ripping me off. He is also giving away some series 2 gen 1 cards which is why my alarm bells went off cause those can be worth quite something, so giving them away just like that is odd.

Virus content ahead

I got a lot of fakes from my local Walmart

lolz wizards is getting their money regardless. They "Can't" reprint the reserve list anyways so...

I'd like to know what the best way to check a foil is.

This is the worse video I’ve seen

I resently got a smothering tithe that after all tests seems to be an original but the front side is much darker than another one I got from a booster. Does that mean it's fake or is it some kind of missprint or different print process from wotc, like japanese cards feel very different from europeen cards

How about cards like Chandra, Pyromaster (SDCC 2013) is it possible to apply the same methods?

So sad we come to a world full of scams, even with our beloved hobbies.

Ngl, I wouldn't mind having one of those fakes. Useful for building a cube

Yeah I'm not going to tear a card in half to test its authenticity

I bought a reviesed Plateau and i have no clue if it's real or fake. I did the light test but i'm still skeptical. The condition of the card looks to good to be real. I also have no other old card to compare. Hopefully a lokal game store can help me

No L test on the green symbol?

Don’t ever do the bend test to any card

Thank you

The light test worked relly well thx for the help

Mmmh, the Backside is often a bit different from series to series, or am I wrong? I often see normal cards (nothing expensive) which have a slightly different brightness on the back.
