Unfortunately it looks like I’ll need eBay and my credit card company to step in, but beware in case more hit eBay and also look out for this seller!

WTF?! a fake pack? Reprinting cards probably easier than packs. Hopefully u can get your full refund, Jon! Good Luck

Straight up fraud, these guys should be drawn and quartered. Best wishes on restitution Jon.

The seller isn’t necessarily the counterfeiter. So perhaps we should hold off on quartering him until we know. But I agree he should offer a full refund.

The seller has a responsibility to assess what he is selling or clearly state " I don't know if it's genuine or not".

Except that "I don't know if it's genuine or not" is seller code for "I do know, and it's not."
