You can learn through experience, it's really not that difficult once you know what to look for.

Anyway, I would hate to learn on the job and pay type 1 money for a non authenticated photo only to find out that it is not. Did this with cards in the early days and still recovering from those loses.

Being able to buy photos in person could certainly reduce the learning curve but buying online, at this point for me, is just guessing.

Yeah, would definitely start with cheaper photos and work your way up, even then it's still about comfortable risk level vs reward.

I've definitely had some big wins and some big misses along the way.

If you are not missing then you are not trying hard enough. Appreciate the advice.
