Not even a close call. Very fake.

When the winning bid on a 49 Leaf Paige is $113, that should tell you all you need to know.

Thanks for the replies, and I'll consider myself lucky [not winning].
But no one yet has told me how he can tell that card is a fake. And that's what I'd like to know, so I won't make such a mistake again. Doug |

To me, the colors seem off, and that ring (edge-wear?) around the top and sides of the card would be cause for concern. It looks artificial, as I have never seen a card age like that.

Okay, here's my reasoning:
1. No scan of the back provided. "Huge red flag"! 2. The consistent wear on all four sides is very obvious made to look like a worn authentic card 3. The color is off 4. And finally his location scares the hell out of me if I had to track him down? (St-Gérad des Laurentides, QC, Canada) These are just my feelings, others may have more.
