Hey bud could I send my card to you and get your opinion? I would rather not do the "rip test" to check if this 1st edition charizard is real or not? Is that possible?
Another good indicator is at the bottom right corner of the slab itself on a real PSA slab there's a PSA logo imprint on the plastic. Thought I'd put this info out there to help out in spotting fake slabs from PSA
The other thing is there is a little PSA logo on the bottom right of every legit slab. I noticed the Charizard didn't have it immediately. You can see it on every legit PSA slab, fake slabs will never have that (or at least I've never seen a fake slab with one).
On top of that, at the bottom right of the PSA slab plastic there should be PSA embedded. The fake does not have that (easy to see in photos on ebay or fb marketplace)
@@tacticalmanagerbabymommaak5825 nope you're good, as long as you can feel a slight raise it's fine, some slabs have a prominent raise others do not quality control is not that great i'm guessing haha
You didn't need it.... But all modern slabs have a black light logo. on the front (Top red line) And on the back (Around PSA logo) The sorta old ones have the black light logo on the back (Again around PSA logo) And all old PSA slabs have holographic's made into the label, not printed. (The middle front) (The lettering on the back)
I'm not buying any card worth > $200 that doesn't come with ebay authenticity guarantee - let PSA verify and authenticate the card first. It's nice not having to 2nd guess the bigger purchases.
Geez good catch. That wasn't even on my mind when reviewing the card and slab. I was just so amped up as to how obviously fake the Charizard was based on color and stamp. Felt so bad for this guy, hoping he can get his money back.
The slab should have a PSA on the bottom right corner and a 21 on the bottom left. The labels on a real PSA slab should have blacklight security measures (but someone could put a real label in a fake slab) hope this helps.
Another thing too if you want to confirm it’s authentic, look up the serial number and it will show a picture on psa of the front and back of your card when they graded it. Then see if it matches your card. If not, then the label may be legit but the card was swapped.
On fakes psa also you can se the blue color on the stiker if it’s to white clearly it’s fake the hologram half it’s a little bit darker and the code you can scan that with your phone and it will take u to the information of the card and show you pictures of everything also in the like blue color strips of the stiker in the front you can read the word of psa and corners of the button on the font and on the back u can see olsa the letters psa if you buy psa all this things are easy to identify a fake psa card grade and other things it’s the bar code
Thanks for watching everyone! Hope you're all having a great day! : )

what about cgc
There are good fakes that will have that psa imprint too
I have about a 100 empty slabs with the PSA logo on the front and back corners. They're easy to make
Is It possible original PSA Card without logo on the corner??
Good info! Sorry to the owner. Gonna have to go visit that sellers return address… i would.
Very informative! If only I had a real 1st Ed PSA Zard to compare it to 😂😅
Who has one of those?😅

never noticed that on my slabs before now i feel very dumb haha thanks for pointing that one out.
I’ve just seen you can buy them on Etsy with the psa on the bottom right :’(
Did the squirtle PSA logo on back reflect NASDAQ at 2:56 ? Is that normal...
i also learned the slabs newer ones that is has a raised psa stamped in the bottom of the plastic since scammers apparently can not replicate that.
This was some scary stuff bro 😨 great info! 😁👊
You can take a black light n see psa hidden prints on a real psa tag
the text on the label is wrong and PSA has their logo on the actual slabs themselves
PSA slabs also have PSA etched or embossed in the plastic near the foot of the card. If you look closely again, you will see it.
On top of that, at the bottom right of the PSA slab plastic there should be PSA embedded. The fake does not have that (easy to see in photos on ebay or fb marketplace)
Exactly right! Thanks for pointing that out!
One of my slab has it but it's hardly raise. But everything else is great. Should I be worried?
@@tacticalmanagerbabymommaak5825 nope you're good, as long as you can feel a slight raise it's fine, some slabs have a prominent raise others do not quality control is not that great i'm guessing haha
You didn't need it....
But all modern slabs have a black light logo.
on the front
(Top red line)
And on the back
(Around PSA logo)
The sorta old ones have the black light logo on the back
(Again around PSA logo)
And all old PSA slabs have holographic's made into the label, not printed.
(The middle front)
(The lettering on the back)
The holo pattern is obvious as well. WAY to clean - even pack fresh WOTC holo pattern never looked that sharp.
That's the first thing that looked wrong to me when he flipped it around
Did you get the two PSA 5’s regraded from the video from a year ago? Thanks
On new slabs Black light reveals "PSA" continuously across the upper red bar. Half on the red bar and half on the white area
Only cert numbers above 44 million (roughly) have the watermark at the top. Cert numbers below that won't have the PSA watermark on them
Do you know if the silver lighthouse on front and back should read with little psa’s or CLCT NASDAQ?
@@garchomper1 CLT NASDAQ Logo if its under 45 million. PSA Logo if its 46 million and above.
modern psa slab also have black light ink that shows up when shined on 😇
Do all modern psa slabs have small psa letters running across the top of the label?
card could of been sun bleached
Awesome video new friendscriber here and remember the sky is not the limit its just our starting point.
Great video Dan
That zard looks really good tho
I'm not buying any card worth > $200 that doesn't come with ebay authenticity guarantee - let PSA verify and authenticate the card first. It's nice not having to 2nd guess the bigger purchases.
How about the PSA logo on front right, bottom of slab, and also on the back
Yea waiting for him to mention about that since it’s pretty obvious that it’s missing on the slab.
Geez good catch. That wasn't even on my mind when reviewing the card and slab. I was just so amped up as to how obviously fake the Charizard was based on color and stamp. Felt so bad for this guy, hoping he can get his money back.
@@dantcg2594 , Thanks, Great video, I feel bad as well.
Even the PSA font looks different
Real curious what they got charged for the fake card… was the price to good to be true?
I mean if u paid 500 to 2500 most likely you bought a fake ...
If I dropping that load make sure I get a PSA auditor involved in the transaction
Theres a guy by me selling proxy cards that have been graded by psa but are all proxy cards
I hope the owner burns this and gets it out of circulation, nothing worse than spending hard earned cash on fakes 🤬
could have also checked the label with a black light, and check the psa logo in the corner, and check the holo pattern. This is a pretty bad fake
The slab should have a PSA on the bottom right corner and a 21 on the bottom left. The labels on a real PSA slab should have blacklight security measures (but someone could put a real label in a fake slab) hope this helps.
@Gogeta Vegito i forgot to mention that but that is also true.
Another thing too if you want to confirm it’s authentic, look up the serial number and it will show a picture on psa of the front and back of your card when they graded it. Then see if it matches your card. If not, then the label may be legit but the card was swapped.
That’s an option that you pay for so
If the person that graded it paid for it then it’ll be there if not it won’t
@@andysangels1970 you are 100% wrong its on every card.
@chosenkin_ lmao you are laughably wrong plenty of psa cards with out pictures try again clown 🤡
Do the bar code on the fake psa case take you to the site?
On fakes psa also you can se the blue color on the stiker if it’s to white clearly it’s fake the hologram half it’s a little bit darker and the code you can scan that with your phone and it will take u to the information of the card and show you pictures of everything also in the like blue color strips of the stiker in the front you can read the word of psa and corners of the button on the font and on the back u can see olsa the letters psa if you buy psa all this things are easy to identify a fake psa card grade and other things it’s the bar code
Black light will show you a reflective psa across the top
Can they fake the barcode?
Can you let me know if my card is fakw
Simple cut the card and if there is no black liner its fake
Just hit it with a uvblacklight
:c they are all over aliexpress
i no longer have any of my "old" slabs
im on the hunt for a nice case for them all
Please tell me you destroyed that fake
The PSA case looks fake clearly and easy to identify
I checked the cert number n its legit
Doesn't mean the card or slab is real
That’s such a bad fake 😅
So dark ...bad lighting
:(
Hate desperate people uploading just for clicks and views.
Yeah that card was really fake as soon as you see it...Everyone should definitely do research before buying cards like this.
