    I also want to mention that I don’t wish that anyone should ever be scammed if they genuinely felt that the case was real after I had walked away from that deal. I just think sports players on that side of the trading card hobby jumped into Pokémon cause of the hype and did not take the time to acknowledge the obvious concerns and cautions they should have been looking for. And cause of the negligence of their research and consideration of the buyers credibility, lots of money may have been wasted at others expense.
    And if it’s legit they’re gonna say “haha see they were just hating” … but no I wasn’t hating I had concerns and they are just finally doing what a real collector should have done before … it should have always been opened to verify. You still have the most valuable collectible of Pokémon in the world with the lid of that case half opened. And it’s sad to see them bully you for their research. The cockiness of how much money they have and putting you down isn’t welcomed in the Pokémon community. No matter how much he disagrees with opinions .

      For any of this to be defamation, they would have to prove that he knows what he is saying is a lie. Speculation and comparing evidence to make judgements that you fully admit are a hobby person's judgement fully falls within the legal realm. Pointing out that a suspect package with a bunch of inconsistencies HAS a bunch of inconsistencies isn't defamation or slander.

      If they know where it was printed and the printer certainly didn't just print Pokemon. They could probably verify unopened basketball, football, or whatever was printed at that factory. Maybe they used a bunch of different packing materials / printers but the point is they should have a partial match with something else in existence and this doesn't add up in my opinion. There should be a few partial unopened boxes in existence and I hope someone comes forward as it would clear it up and potentially boost the value of their own set.

    Not sure if you'll still read these comments, but the main part that I'm seeing (worked with labelprinters) is that you're correct about the aging, but primarely, the font that is used on these so-called 1st edition box is 'way to new'. The font's back in the day (20+ years ago) are way more oldish. The 901 for example, if you compare the fonts like you did, the '9' is a very newly like font. If you check the old boxes from the other video (Met7?) it's an older looking '9', including the label. These labels/numbers on the (fake-)box are done with fonts from the last 10 years. If it's possible to correctly find the font (which should be do-able with current tech), you'll probably find out that the font that has been used on the label wasn't there yet in the year that the label was (supposably) printed.

I wonder if anyone who has sealed video games recently graded is worried at all. Keep up the great work showing all the facts!

    I think the card buying and selling community needs to adopt some things from other similar concepts. Art has a thing called provenance which is the history of ownership and if there is a red flag most places automatically reject the piece. Woulda saved everyone some time if they were familiar with the idea.

    • @RattlePokemon
      @RattlePokemon  2 роки тому +4

      At least use the red flags as a reason to check the contents. Worst possible provenance paired with the highest desire to keep it as sealed as possible. Even adding another seal to it...

    BBCE should have opened the box and checked it all and just resealed it with their seals. I know they do that with opened baseball boxes with packs. Like an opened hobby box for example. Definitely going to change the game of grading which is starting to become saturated as far as single cards.

    Just want to add some information surrounding Micka aka PokeButler.
    This is going back 8 years or so , but me , him and another collector in the U.K. were all nearly scammed by a seller in Belgium. We were all trying to purchase 1st Ed base set boxes from this seller.
    This was before the insta community as it is now , before all the poke “ experts “. These may have been the first counterfeit 1st Ed base boxes.
    So Micka did buy multiple boxes from this guy , and “ lost “ thousands once he realised they were fake. The seller had over 6-7 of these for sale.
    It was only years later that I realised he was also a scammer , and resealed individual Base 1st Ed packs. This is common knowledge now.
    Would I be surprised if this LP case contained those fake 1st edition base boxes? Yes and no. It was many years ago.
    But if Micka is somehow involved in it’s origins , I’d be suspicious to say the least.
