Welcome is right.
I'm new too but have been going to shows since I was a kid in the 70's and my advice is to buy from dealers who you trust.
I personally do not know enough about grading to know the extent of the grading companies grading fakes so if this is happening on a broad scale - I'd stay away.
But if the fine collectors on this site tell you it doesn't happen very often, then have confidence in the services and enjoy your cards.
Either way - I hope you figure out how to get the enjoyment from collecting that you want. I feel your angst and hope it goes away.
