One of the nice things about being a Yugioh player is that fake Yugioh cards look like they were made by a blind man in a warehouse basement.
For the old fakes, yeah they were super obvious. I doubt you will ever start to see deepfakes like this for the modern cards people actually play, but for old sets that have high collectors values starting to crop up like LOB and Metal Raiders I can all but assure you that we will start seeing counterfeits of this degree or better.
I remember getting some fakes when i was a kid in like 2007 n u could easily tell, this is crazy
Yeah, I'm a magic player and most people in that community would of shut it down in a heartbeat at the very first sign of a red flag.
@@austinwilburn1772 mtg has some pretty convincing counterfeits out there from what I've heard.
@@luckysevens6852 They do but Its still pretty easy to tell when compared to a legit card. The way light reflects off the cards, the durability of the material are all obvious signs that are very easy to tell in person.
3 minutes in and I'm watching a man with the biggest optimistic about attitude of 2020.
And just like that, 2020 brought him back to 2020
i’d be optimistic as well if i had 10K on the line.

@Bebe Amebe Penisi still a felony after a certain point. And literally scummy
wdym *with the biggest optimistic about attitude of 2020*
44:45 is when he finally comes to his senses and realizes he was duped....that's unfortunate, but I'm glad you gave the viewers their money back
I literally could tell the second he opened the box...
And this is exactly why I'm a casual card enthusiast. I can get just as happy with a basic pokemon card with a new or cute/interesting artwork and only spend MAYBE $40 a month. Any holo pulled results in the happiness dance and ceremonial sleeving. Works for me and my fam, we aren't crazy about investing in it, don't have any plans to trade or compete in battles, just fans of the Pokemon themselves.
Nothing but credit for how well u handled this.
The “it’s tough” “idk” “hard to tell” all stems from the fact you know deep down someone took you for 10k and you wanna do unspeakable things. I FEEL YOUR PAIN. so upsetting
Have you ever spent 10k on anything?
@@LookingTheBest lol. Yes. Multiple comic collections. 5,10,12,25,45k. Multiple toy collections 5,7,12,15,30k and multiple cash deal vehicles. Most I’ve spent on Pokémon is $8300 tho. Why do you ask tho…I’ve near been scammed out of 10k tho

Crazy how they can do all that shit but can't figure out how to seal the packs
This really sucks. You can tell by the redness in his ears, the embarrassment and disbelief that this box was full of crap and fakes. I wish you the best in the future that you don't run into this problem.
Damn his ears where red

The look on his face when he noticed the cards are in the same order is just heartbreaking. Like a look of total embarrassment and disbelief.

thats when he knows for sure its fake and then proceeds to pretend like he doesn't already know for the next 45 minutes
@@janirobe true 😂😂
lmao 🤣 shit was funny as fck
@@janirobe he wanted em to turn real, but the real nail in the coffin was ripping the holo's
This guy has such a passion and really cares about fellow collectors…. Respect
Man, I felt so bad when he pulled the first pack out and saw it was open. My heart weeps for you.
I knew right away it was fake. That will never happen in a factory
He was in so much denial he said "it could have been a sealing issue at the factory" at least 10 times.
Yeah he was hoping but yeah when you have that many packs like that open its not good
The whole video is one huge cope
That, and people aren't tuned into the stream at the same time, so people will stop spamming "what happened?"
Well it was a sealing issue at "a" factory, its just not the factory we hoped for :/
I had that issue with my box back in the day. It was legit but not this many bags were open.
Dude im not even into Pokemoncards or opening shit, but this made me sad watching him + being him so professionally handling it.
That's the only reason why he's calm lmao
Vids like this are why I'm so scared to jump back into the retro market, so grateful I have so much from this Era already open from when I was a kid, makes me want to open all my unopened product just to see but so scared of receiving this kick to the teeth. Im sorry this happened to you bro, you didn't deserve this.
This is one of those amazing videos that you hear about but rarely witness.its sad, but I appreciate you bailed on the video and you refunded people, hope you sorted out your own refund from the scammer.
Sorry to see this my man. Hopefully it gets sorted. Thanks for being such an icon in the community!
crazy seeing you here BuTTeR, I remember seeing you on twitter back in September getting really annoyed at resealed packs in one of the stores in the US and I honestly had no idea it was gonna blow back up in popularity so much! Gonna check out your PSA submissions :)
Hey what’s up butter! I remember watching your channel when you were grinding division 1 with slippery in the dark zone 😂 good ol days
Says u bro u been a legend since. Og Tom clancy
Division 2 content? Any?
Sheeeet see u in the Dark Zone 😂
I will stay a member and continue to purchase from your shop because i trust your judgment and good natured spirit.
How u have an alien by ur name wtf
Right the fact that he uploaded this and didn’t have to tell us shows a lot about his character
He also refunded everyone that purchased. This is the type of guy I'd be comfortable buying from
I hope this was all resolved, just recently got back into collecting thanks to you. Thank you for your content , your energy, your humility. I appreciate you
Massive respect for being so humble and creating a truly inspiring youtube channel. Keep up the amazing work!
47:33 I bet this poor guy has woken up in a cold sweat screaming "They're all the same!"
51:33 - the face of a broken man 😭
Pokerev is one of those guys that does right by the community. He investigated, didn’t give a bs answer, and shut it down and refunded after the misfortune of finding out they’re fake. We love you pokerev keep it up!
Watched this video for the first time and just blown away by how awesome you handled this situation! Admirable for sure!
That's why we buy from you and not single cards on ebay. It's not your fault, i hope you get all of your money back pokerev!
I always use Ebay honestly
but even buying from someone like him could get you fake cards. Imagine if instead of opening the packs he sold the box thinking they're real, then you'd be buying something that's fake without either of you knowing.
@@siamsttr And, to be fair, there’s always a chance the person he bought them from didn’t know either.
Best fakes I've seen yet, but never would all the packs be the same cards in the same order. Scary they are making them that good though.
I personally believe this was from the same equipment , paper and inks , but the
person/s doing this look to be in a hurry . Leading me to think this was unauthorized reprints . That constitutes fakes .
The fakes are so good since they only need to do a very little variation. That's why ever pacck contain the same cards
Mehhhh. It’s good for his ass. Maybe I’ll start selling fakes. Seems like a sucker is born every RUclips channel. Gotta love it.
@@NA-pt6ck Like you even could lmfao
@Boa-Noah if Psa puts them in a slab then it will be impossible to any person to tell it’s a fake lol
Wow, some ppl are cleaver and sneaky.. im really sorry to see you had this happen.. its a horrible thing to do to someone.. my inner child sure felt hurt and disappointed.. i couldn’t image that happening in IRL :( i hope good luck found you this year and you got some real card pulls you wanted in a real box.. and hope you were given a full refund/or a full real unopened box of cards.
Wooow!!! The amount of detail and work to go into producing these high quality fakes!! I really hope everyone involved in these scams gets caught.
You handled this situation perfectly. Well done Rev!
@@Angel42515 nope these holo cards are totaly fake... these never came from pokemon themself
@@Angel42515 They were some of the best fake cards I’ve ever seen. Very convincing at first glance, but definitely fake.
Minus the spending 10k on fake cards part
51:29 Man’s soul just got crushed. Sorry this happened. People are awful.
well.. he deserved it ❤️
@SimpleGamingChannel it shouldn’t have that plastic film on it...
Szobiz why?
the way the music cut out man.. damn
I miss your epic seven content
I’ve never seen someone be in denial for so long. My heart was breaking for you man.
Very good video and catch, and I salute you for keeping the video going to your viewers to show that you weren't trying to hide or be shady about anything. As well promising everyone their money back. To me the contrast is different but the fake one where the two stars are near the bottom the white is totally in a different area even though you said it could be a printing issue. But you are correct the fakes were way too blurry compared to your PSA 10. Too me I thought the picture of the two you were comparing the top left part of the picture was off and was cut off a little. But you are right as well again about the cards being glossy. For some reason I was sent 4 boxes of Darkness Ablaze that I never ordered but somehow, they were delivered to me when I only visited the site but never ordered due to the prices and being skeptical. You have taught me so much when I decided to get into this hobby to collect and invest in for years later to come like you said in your earlier videos, to set it and forget it. I try to only buy from reputable sites, but you have taught me how to not trust Ebay as well about people hacking accounts, to mystery boxes. I have never been a fan of those, but unfortunately bought some from TCG and other reputable seller's that I thought were good but now am worried and will be inspecting any goods that I buy from Ebay or anywhere else. So now the mystery boxes that I have purchased and was going to put away, I now want to open to make sure that I wasn't scammed. I did order two mystery boxes that guaranteed to include at least one pack from 2009-2012. Which now I am worried and suspect that those packs are probably weighed and is the reason why these sellers make these boxes because they are giving me the packs that weigh less and gave me the one's they wanted. I am not sure what I am going to do now, maybe just keep the packs just for show and display, rather than opening them. Thanks for all your knowledge and content. Just know I will always do what you have suggested going further to help me ensure I am not getting scammed! I salute you and keep the great videos coming, never give up or be discouraged. We need to figure out a way to stop the scammer's so that this cannot happen anymore as hard it maybe but the community needs to come together and think of something!
The sadness in his voice when he said “now I don’t know”...imagine scamming someone for a few thousand dollars and sleeping at night.
Yeah. If I did that, I would never be able to sleep at night.
@@terry122 then you already have a life and/or live in a country that doesnt/dont let you sleep at night.
Few??? 10k is not few
@@lorenz2781 ?
Yeah, I just don’t get people. How you can be such a piece of shit and have no problem with it.
It’s calming to know that people who do this sort of stuff always get what’s coming to them, in one way or another
You saw his soul leave his body when he ripped that holo. Tried to stay optimistic throughout but that was it.
I don't know much about Pokemon cards but I enjoy collecting magic, especially sealed. Heart breaking man... I recently had two kamigawa boxes that were 100% resealed but thankfully I video taped myself opening the package from start to finish and it was so obvious even a frame from the video would show a person who's opened more than a couple magic packs it was resealed. It's tough man
Lmao his face when he rips the holo. 🤣
I am completely in awe of how professional you are. I know that 1 subscriber does not compare to a 10k box, but with this video you won not only a new subscriber, but a deep admiration. Greetings from Argentina.
amazing.
Extremely unprofessional!!! He had nothing ready!!! He needs to learn how to edit.
@@kurtisknight593 edit a live stream?
@@t.c.574 lmao that’s what I was thinking like bro, this happened live
@@kurtisknight593 bro, u alright?
So sorry rev! We all looked forward to it especially me as neo genesis is my all time favorite set and finally managed to grab a pack.
But: No one is blaming you and I think we should use this opportunity to educate each other on how do detect fake boxes. You are doing an amazing job and we appreciate you. We’ll figure this out!! 👽
exactly!
well said
Indeed!!
the only opportunity worthy i see here is the scammers learn to fo better
I LOVE going back to this video and watching him just be baffled for 30 minutes or so… LOL
51:55 none of this is funny, but I had a little laugh to myself how that synced perfectly with the music fading, like the party just died 😭
One of my rule of thumb, if the cards are glossy, it's fake, and that was literally one of the first thing I noticed.
If the art looks really weird tho, it might be a card from the so called "Vending series"
Its some sort of set that was apparently only sold in vendings? Maxmoefoe mentions those often when opening mystery mandrake cubes.
[Or it could be a magazine promo.]
@@insaniayt7824 I mean, he openned 3 packs in a row and got the same pokemons at the exactly same order, what are the odds.. right?
This dude handled this so well
I probably would have broke down and cried or punched a wall
Positive mentality is a great thing to have
ur not a millionaire
This was pennies to a rich man plus he will make a bunch from the video
Getting paid to upload it either way. Plus, likely some “pity donations” during the stream.
@@vanDevKieboom how did he make his millions.
@@LITMOVIESCENES positive mentality boyy
you can tell many many differences on the cyndaquil cards at 25:00 - especially the lines and lettering or symobol, differences, and thickness in inking.
Just now seeing your video. Now we can tell by how light the colors and how thin the box is. So sorry you found one this way. Seeing the way you handled this made subscribe.
Here is a compilation if things I noticed and are to look out for:
1. Burred Packs
2. Sealing Areas of the Pack Cover itself was lower than usual.
3. Opened/Improper Sealing off the Packs
4. The Pack Sealing Marks were much larger.
5. Horrible Centerings of the Cards
6. Card Order of the packs were often in the exact same order.
7. Color and Gloss
8. Text on cards were misplaced, look at the text of an attack and then the attack value, the attack values positioning was incorrect.
9. Text Spacing was off, in this case so close that the HP 50 was instead like HP50 where the P and the 5 was touching each other.
10. The 5 was different in the HP 50, the font was more curved at the bottom where the original was not, pay very close attention to that 5.
11. Blur on Cards, displacement or odd features of various marks, such as the card generation indicator, the evolution indicator.
12. Texture and Feel
13. Holo failing the Rip test.
Some of the best fakes I ever saw was in Mexico. The cards honestly felt and looked exactly the same and that was early 2010s. I can only imagine them now
Sometimes there are bubbles of criminal genius in some places of the world that are so sophisticated in the art of forgery that we can be lucky that those are often contained inside of their respective country's borders and don't have either brain or capacity to export.
Sheesh
Howd u differ em
Yo the dedication to ur craft is awesome the fact ur ripping a real card even just one is respectable bro I appreciate ur realness I love this hobby n it sucks ppl do this
The text just below the typhlosion was literally falling out of its bubble 😂
Damn, my heart broke for you, it was obvious from five minutes in the video and I know you thought so yourself you just didn’t want it to be true. Handled like a professional, much respect for staying professional. 👊🏼
Damn the hobby/market has become very toxic in the last 6 months, it's just not fun to collect anymore...
Thanks for everything you've done so far Rev
What happen
@@adityanosora the box rev opened today was fake, seems a lot of fake card and boxes on the market
I'll still try to collect. Just can't buy anything online anymore. Yard sales and garage sales, flea markets ect and graded products only at this point. I got ripped off on a few mystery boxes on amazon and its just bad that if you don't personally get the item yourself in store its most likely resealed.
Yup i've also noticed this. So many people just getting into pokemon because they saw in logan pauls video that there's a lot of money in the hobby.
Quite sure this box has been faked ages ago, not anything recent. Stories have surfaced for very convincing japanese neo fakes few years back.
"This could be a factory issue" *Mans huffing the largest cannister of copium known to mankind*
honestly if they printed more then a few types of cards it would have been much harder to tell they shot themself in the foot by only making 20 different cards
My heart sank when you hit the deja vu moment of repeating card order.:(
It was funny cause a pack before I had that realization.
Time stamp?
@@marcuss7047 22:10
Some card venders have missprints that get passed along production and miss major steps. I know this because I was a production manager it looks like this was a pre print that was post production that was sent ahead without any thought...
@@macauley4466 those counterfeits are garbage. There's some super high quality ones available on AliExpress that have black cores, pass most tests including light test, the only way to tell if they're real is by using a jewler's loupe to look at the fine details that are hard to replicate. The ones in this video look like they were printed off around 2010 or so. They're definitely good, but a trained eye can see the obvious difference in text size and alignment. The latest batch of fakes I ordered were nearly perfect macroscopically, had to bust out the loupe to check them and they're spot on aside from some of the text/symbol edges.
It's crazy seeing denial in action. Says so much about Rev's character though. Such a wholesome dude trying to see the positive. But yeah I can't believe how long he entertained the idea that it was real
I am a poor character person and I’ve denied to myself that I was sold grass clippings instead of weed all the way up to smoking it before I admitted it to myself. It’s not a character trait, it’s a defensive trait.

The consistent repeat of the same cards is a dead giveaway though.
I’m really sorry that happened. I’m really mad at whoever sold the box.
Dude what does it take the card that says reprent
The person who sold it could have been scammed too. It could have been a long way back to the scammer. So a lot of people could have been scammed in the process. It ended with him, if he didn’t know any better he would have technically scammed everyone else. Luckily for everyone else and unfortunately for him, it ended with him.

This video was my first time in the pokecave after it appeared in my recommended. The way you handled this situation said a lot about your character which got me interested in your other videos and ultimately led to me becoming a member and participating in your live openings. Keep killin it Rev and I can't wait to see what's gonna go down in the cave in 2021.
Scammers really are just the worst. It’s like coming home to find out your house has been broken into and a bunch of stuff stolen. Nothing worse. And those few minutes of optimism and hope that maybe it’s just a bad seal from the factory or whatever. Just trying to hold onto the tiniest bit of Hope while the actuality that you know you’ve been duped/screwed is undeniable and screaming at you in your head. Just the worst thing ever. Can’t even imagine how it would feel being live on RUclips revealing it in front of an audience, let alone an audience of people that also paid for them and are also holding out hope for it to not be true. So sorry for you bro. Obviously no one had anything to worry about because you are a stand up guy and immediately refund everyone. But for you it’s just the worst. And I don’t know how it ended up for you but I really hope you were able to get your money back also.
Oh my goodness I feel so bad... They are so hard to tell the real from the fake.These are the most realistic fakes I've ever seen.
Man you can tell this guy was just not giving up hope
Imagine how much money he lost here.
It was sad for real. It made my heart sink
Joey Polisena you'd do the same if you spent 10k on a box.
Holo Japanese are like sticker the only difference is the should leave no holo on it it should be white on it when you break it and you should be able to see blue in the middle instead of black like the American cards are
This is scary. Imagine the amount of fakes there are out there.
Millions. I see lots of vendors at the fleamarket all day!
Almost everyone trying to bank off those who dont think and just buy so fakes are made anytime and we get taken and loose out anytime.

I am a graphic designer and had to rebuild a lot of graphics/Logos for jobs so i know how much work it is to rebuild something like this. Altough i saw the differences in the fonts pretty fast it is really scary how much effort they put into faking these cards... But as always criminals dont know limits... You handled the situation really good and i hope you get refunded somehow!
Best greetings from germany and i love your streams!

This was so sad to watch, sorry that happened to you and I hope you got your money back! Also, at 37:50 you can see that the first line of text under the attacks, they used the wrong first character or put it too close to the other character altering the way the text reads. :(
So sorry this happened, but don't worry to much about it. No one's gonna blame you for it. Much love from Germany 💕

tbf... People were scamming boxes since the start. It became a bigger issue after 2010 starting with base set in english and Neo in Japanese.
This is getting as bad as another hobby of mine. Hot Wheels. Scalpers buying up all the premium cars by having friends on the inside of Walmart , Target, and so on that hold the cars in the back or go through them before they reach the floor.

Why are people in the Pokémon community reselling these empty packs and boxes? What did you guys think would happen. If you’re a Pokémon Enthusiast do you go out buying packs to collect them? Explain why. Booster boxes I understand.
You even rip one of your cards to test if they where fake, dude, you are great. I’m sorry for what happened. Keep the good work.
It’s so crazy seeing this happen. My son just got into Pokémon cards so I was thinking about starting a channel for him where we do pack openings and this scares me. I noticed after just a few packs they were in the same order. Sucks this happened man..

The font is different. Slightly more magnified and also some are spaced differently, but seriously though, the fakes are getting better and better! So annoying
Did you see the end? The front of the holos isn't just paper.. it's a fcking foil xD
Actual Pokémon cards are printed onto foil
@@richsanson8497 the whole card isn’t foil with a glued on card lmao
Just got to the end myself, the whole cards are usually foil, I've removed them before on genuine cards, and that's how you get holo bleed, but would normally be printed on, not a sticker lol
I don't know how the new ones are made but the old cards are only foiled in several areas so only where it is necessary.
And it's seems like they have the same pattern as the genuine neo ones so.. they didn't use new holofoil.. so.. they faked it
51:32 I haven't seen one of those holo sticker cards since I was a kid. We used to have a whole fake box of the original base set back in the day, surprised it's still a thing. Sorry for your loss.

Same thing will happen with Pokemon, probably has already been happening for years
That must feel like Brrchacha all the way, we like to see your umbeufo ❤️
This is the reason I can't buy boxes of boosters for me and my sister too open anymore. We loved sitting down every now and then and opening packs seeing who got the best pulls in the box tallying up the value like a game. Spending ages sorting them all and filling our collection books up. Making decks and trading our new cards. Was loads of fun getting a box full.
But, I just don't trust buying them anymore. We just get a couple of packs from the store every time I vist her. its not the same as getting into a box and isn't as exciting but, it beats the disappointment of opening fakes.
I've never seen fakes that good that's crazy man it's usually terrible fakes with 6 Ultra Rares in one pack haha. but mad respect for your handling of the situation we love you big dog
All packs came with the same cards....
“Wow that’s so weird, I’ll do 1 more”
Inspects it more, same cards being pulled
“Wow that’s so weird, I’ll do 1 more “
In denial
Even 45 mins furiously opening packs
*I don't know*
*One more*
It took until ripping the shiny to accept it
Lmao the look on his face is hilarious
in denial because of how expensive and real the cards seemed to be
The ultimate double edge sword….ripping a holo to see if it is real or not. If it is real you loose the holo, if it is fake you now know it’s fake.
I think that booster box was put together for the packs to be sold individually and nobody would have been any of the wiser.
Rewatched a year later and for a guy who wasn’t convinced they were bad packs he man handled the shit outta them
This one was tough to watch but I respect how you handled this and how you proceeded with treating it like normal until you were sure. Bless up Rev, better times to come
25:20 everything about those cards is different. The sizing. The text thickness and spacing. Everything
How professional you are, respect
Awesome appreciate your honesty and tring to get to the bottom of figuring out if they are fake or not… really a outstanding person and pillar in the Pokémon community knowing that we have people like you…
"They couldn't even have faked a Lugia for us at least?" 🤣😅🤣 You had me dead man. We outta find out who these bum darts are and tie some socks around there nuts with rocks and watch them sink in a Chinese river somewhere.
i agree
So descriptive and i like it
Lol 😂 this comment almost made me cry
Dude said tie some socks 🧦 with rocks 🪨 in them around there nuts 🥜 lol
That would give us too much value. Can't have that
Do you need help?
Working at a print shop for 7 years taught me that when you scan an object and then print it digitally, it thickens all the lines and makes them bolder.. they are all in the same order bc they were printed off and stacked before cutting...
I think you're right. The fake one looks a tad bit bigger/bolder in certain areas.
100% correct look at the set symbol the lines on the stars are way to thick.
But the plus sign was way smaller
