  • So I hosted my first pokemon league tonight which was a success I believe and was selling some booster packs and sleeves.

    One of the guys has just got back to me and pointed out that his reverse holo's were missing the pattern on them (the energy logo). Is this a misprint or have I potentially been sold a box of fake cards? They were bought from a company called Kool Kingdom and wanted to get your opinion before I went directly to the seller.

    That sounds fake to me, but I'd wait for confirmation from people who know what they are doing.

    actually not all sets have the logo on them.
    For example, evolutions ... that's actually the only one I can think of atm XD

  • Sorry I should've been more specific about the set, it was actually a Guardians Rising Box.

    I have however opened 3 packs since to check it all and 2 out of the 3 reverse holo's are faulty so I am beginning to think it's a printing error on TPCi's part and not a fake box.

    You can always share some pictures of the box/boosters/cards, makes it easier for people to help you out and see whether or not there are any clear indications of whether or not they're real or fake.

  • Sorry I was being really lazy with the photos.

    I can confirm that it wasn't a fake box but here is an image anyway to display the errors.

    Spoiler:


    I have also noticed that there are some slight faults to the pattern on some other cards and some are even off colour slightly

    They're likely legit, KoolKingdom are known to be bad in a lot of regards (their stock system updating is abysmal) but not for selling fakes, they're a legit seller.
