I cannot find the set these originated from. The typical 1980s reprint sets all copied the original font and list clearly they are reprints. And they don't have fake backs with super bad cuts.

Look a little harder and you will see tons of these floating around, you can probably find 30 more from this reproduction on eBay in a few minutes. Fantasy fake backs and color combos were normal on 80�s reprints and you can find hundreds of them from multiple reprint runs on eBay every day of the year.

So yes they were meant to deceive lol. Not sure how you got to "they weren't meant to deceive" if the back literally has the word reprint removed. Like I thought before, the real 1980s reprints have it clearly listed, shown here.

These are meant to deceive. He's talking about the set these were from, which were marked "reprint", that were used to make these fakes.

�. No fucking shit the seller of these is trying to deceive. The cards themselves were not meant to be deceptive, which is why all the details are wrong and completely different. This was an honest reprint set, not intended to be confused with the originals. The seller here is trying to pass them off as real and scratched off the �reprint� tag. If you want to play this game, read and make sure you�re right before you play.

Maybe word your post better? I've never seen somebody lose their temper that fast and be so oblivious at the same time. It's obviously not clear that's what you meant in your first post. It looked like you were referring to the cards I posted about saying they were an honest attempt. Hence James post above clarifying.

It is not complicated. This is not a difficult line to follow.

The question is why every aspect of the reprint has been changed - and the answer, like it or not, is because this reproduction run was a legitimate one that was not meant to deceive people. No difficult words were used. That we are talking about the set is explicitly stated and included, not assumed in the on sentence statement.

Make sure you read the post you are trying to correct and mock correctly.

You are trolling at this point and wasting my time. If you can't comprehend how your original statement can be taken numerous ways then I can't help you lol. Ignoring your future troll replies. Not going to delve this into 20 pages of argument replies like 3/4 of your posts turn into.
