Jake, any card I buy online will have a return policy. If it does not, I won't even entertain buying it.

Once I have the card in hand, I'll promptly inspect it. If it doesn't pass the smell test, I'll post scans front and back sides, and ask for feedback from you guys.

I have a jeweler's loupe, black light, a technical drawing ruler, and I'll be subscribing to VCP.

Mike, I, too, have serious concerns about this being more problematic than some are aware of.

Can I assume that cards sold by reputable auction houses like REA would examine cards before being sold? I'd expect they have expertise in these cards, and would be able to spot a faked card.
