Official Real/Fake Card Thread!

[Billyhoyle]

Ok thanks to those who built and contributed to this thread:
http://www.ozcardtrader.com.au/community/threads/official-real-fake-card-thread.29621/

I have started this one so that we can keep track and save all the photos into the follow posts. I've saved the first 10 posts for confirmed fakes to be saved.

Will always place the original on the left.

It would be great to hear peoples opinion on these cards and if you have any info that can help confirm/deny that the patches/cards are real/fake it would be great!

Fleer Auctions
Fleer went backrupt, and all their inventory was sold off at an auction.

A lot of un-numbered, un-signed and un-swatched cards (cards without serial numbering stamped on them, cards meant for autos and cards meant for a Patch or GU, etc) were sold off without their signatures and patches/swatches, etc.

There was and still is a stack of cards floating around out there where people are making their own stamps, replacing the patches, and inserting signatures, etc.

There's also an alarming rate of "1/1" cards that appear out there without the appropriate stamping. Sure, they're a legit card, but shouldn't be classed as something they're not (limited).

These are meant to be 1/1 signed by the Fleer CEO (Who knows why there are 4)

An example of the blank cards sold at the auctions:

These are meant to be machine stamped.

Boston did not use the stitched jerseys when these were made:

These were never made with the Green jersey:

Hi guys,

Just been catching up with all this after 8 years away and have a 1/1 card that's always had me guessing... Does anyone have any info? It 03-04 fleer tradition and has a 1/1 stamp on the bottom left on the back

 

[378]

Sorry, just tried to post a photo from my phone and it doesn't seem to work? Anyway it looks like the base card and is red top and bottom where other base cards I have seen are blue in the top quarter

I know nothing about cards but used to buy a few when I was a youngster. Was cleaning out my cupboard and found this. A bit of googling tells me it's an UD Rainbow Flight Team card, which is apparently very rare. Is there any way of telling if it's a fake or not? I would have bought it off eBay, probably as part of an unopened pack rather than as an individual card because I found it with a bunch of standard Flight Team cards
