Fake T206 UZIT

[ctownboy]

I am far from a T206 expert but when I see a card that has consistent rounded corners, that color of brown stain around the edges and that kind of wear to the white areas of the border, I immediately think it is a fake.

The T206's that I have seen with rounded corners, the corners weren't consistent in their roundness. The cardboard wasn't that brown color and the white borders were more flaked off and not worn off.

I don't know if I have explained things clearly but seeing what I am talking about you could tell the difference.

Then you through in an UZIT back.....

P.S. I am not trying to denigrate the OP or start a fight.

Also...upon viewing the super large back scan...as well as the front scan for that matter... you can see a grid like pattern in the paper stock...which is wrong for a t206.

Yes - once I got it in hands I became mighty suspicious. I held out hope...but am only out the money for grading. The seller has been good about it and already refunded me before I've even returned the card to him. Worst thing is the card should be destroyed...but ebay requires me to return it.

These were the only two images I had to go off of on ebay.....and for a $165 that I'd be covered on..I took a chance with only losing some money for grading.

For the ROI it was worth the risk on loosing out on grading fees. Especially when you take into account the seller had decent feedback and doesn't seem to sell a bunch of fakes.
