To answer a few items that have been brought up (and an edit to clarify my original comments)…
This was not a card dealer. This was a guy who sold mostly records and had a crappy, dark display case with these cards. I knew the Karger was fake, no question. I knew the CJ”s were bad too….too much fake aging for the amount of wear seen.
The Donlin I felt was real. The T207’s at first looked suspect to me based upon my quick examination and seeing the other known fakes but after doing some checking online I realized that they were probably legit. I think what threw me off at first was the numbers that the dealer assigned on the labels. I was pretty sure that this was an unnumbered set.
Problem is, when you see a few bad cards, it taints the lot and puts a bad taste in your mouth. Without a loupe and better lighting, I wasn’t going to bite.
I told the old lady running the store and she said she’d talk to the manager and booth owner.
I appreciate everyone’s opinion and backing up what I thought.
