Pics are indeed kinda small, but they all look fine from here.

I'd say they all look legitimate. That kind of wear isn't particularly easy to fake (I've been trying). Also, for the lands, the fakes I've seen are very, very pale in comparison to what you have there.

To see how easy it is to reduce the crazy glare for one. Also, I want to have a fully powered Vintage deck made of these fakes to shuffle unsleeved and completely F up just to troll people.

Yeah, this is something I'm going to try to stay on top of what I can, even though I am broke as all hell right now. As soon as that other seller tries to sell his set that was completely different than anyone elses, I'm going to try to jump on it. These guys will close up shop, and restart under a different name fairly quickly. They might even be selling under different store names because they use the same pictures as one another quite often, watermarks and all. It's hard to decipher. The best I can figure is that there are a few sellers all sourcing from one producer, or their choice of producer. The bad fakes I posted came from two different sellers, but are all the same quality.

Well, I agreed to buy them. Wish me luck. RIP Bank account PS. That lotus and twister will be extras. I'll be looking to trade the Lotus down to 1 Mox Pearl 1 Mox Jet 1 Ancestral Recall 1 Time walk Condition flexible. Lmk if you know anyone who is interested. I'll probably sell the twister or trade it into other reserve list vintage staples __________________ Back in my day you could get a soda for a quarter and an underground sea for a Hamilton.
