The amount of fake cards listings I have reported to eBay, they should be employing me. Also they deny every single claim and it’s INCREDIBLY infuriating
They should have a small team that goes through it all and removes obvious fakes. Even if they send you an automated message about it being real, not removed, etc... it still counts towards getting them taken down. Happens to people who report the fake listings I've been posting and they still end up removed with enough reports.
I reported a listing described as a Lego set, though you could clearly see some other name was on the pieces. I reported it as not as advertised (ie, it's not Lego). Ebay allowed it. :P
Everytime ive reported a fake they said “upon our investigation the card appears to be real” whole bs they give you, so i stopped. Even put in the comments the color was wrong and their was no texture. Love ebay but that upset me
Personal preference but for anyone looping to purchase a jewelers loop I would suggest getting one with an LED built in it. If anyone needs a link for the $10 one let me know (it also has a small blacklight)
Need to get your hands on the new PSA slabs as they are way different from the old ones. There is probably going to be some bit of time before we see counterfeits but who knows how quick the scammers can get them counterfeit.
Definitely if a offer seems too good to be true 9 outta 10 times its best to walk away. Also if you've been sent pic of the card its best to post the pic to the discord thread and you'll get good people who maybe able to eye it better and know immediately if they are shady looking and if you should walk away. Everyone on the discord are amazing and always willing to help
Omg! When I was a kid in the early 2000s I bought a Charizard for $50 at a flea market (well my parents bought it) but I loved that thing. Showed it off for literal years until 1 day I felt the corner feeling off and it was a sticker. It was stuck on a real card so to my 10 year old self, it looked and felt completely real. I still remember the disappointment that day I found out it was a fake. People suck

They profit over every sale, in the same sense UA-cam gets ad revenue from stolen videos. Sadly there's little incentive for them to care.

That doesn't really mean anything and unfortunate that they send that automated response. Same happened to people on many that we got taken down.
@@RattlePokemon if thats the case i will still report. Good to know buddy, thank you
Thank you for your service. On behalf of the pokemon world, thank you.
I don’t have a cat but I used the blacklight and I have cat pee on my shirt. Should I be concerned?
Nah pee is everywhere.
It’s not cat pee 🪱💦

Majority of the cards aren't going to be in the new cases so it doesn't really solve the issue.

Food for thought; More honey is sold than is produced world wide every year.
Ooh i have that 1st ed dragonair in mint condish. One of the few random cards i kept from childhood.
Hopefully not one with a shadow. ;)
@@RattlePokemon haha definitely not. Dont think anyone was faking 1st ed non holos in the year 2000 although ive been wrong before!
Ordering the black lights and magnifier asap 😅
Most fakes i have seen are so off... its hard to miss. But others definitely are getting better. The fact people fake slabs now is even worse
what is the ebay loophole for reselling?
Just when the hater babies were screaming we were out of content :)

Good work, Rattle. But infinitely depressing.
Imagine how many fakes game stop is taking in
There's gotta be some, right?
A usb microscope is just as cheap as a loop
$4?
@@RattlePokemon I got my usb microscope for $10 like 8 years ago. Plug and play. Cheap but works.
Shadowed first edition base set......easiest way to spot a fake
Becket authentic altered right there. They grade rebacked crap for mtg all the time.
Rudy showed some rebacked collectors editions cards they graded. Fun times.
thanks for this video, now i know exactly what to do in order to make my counterfeits seem more genuine. great upload
