You could always do the rip test. đ
TCGPlayer:The Rip Test
Just like it sounds, the rip test involves ripping a card in half. Real PokĂ©mon cards are made of two thin pieces of cardboard glued together, with a black layer in between. By ripping the card, you can reveal this layerâif there is no layer, the card is fake.That being said, the rest of this guide seems helpful in non-destructive ways.
Yeah I did everything up to the rip test/bend test, no reason to believe it is fake at all. One kinda weird thing, the weight of different cards seems to be different, and this one is relatively heavy. It seems to be about the same weight as a jungle Kangaskhan or 1st edition chansey, but heavier than any base set card I have that isnât shadowless.
The only way to put your hands on this one is either buying through an authenticated vendor who may or not give you a certificate, and you won't pay cheap. The second one is stealing lol.
How much you paid on it for trying to resell at 80k?
So I believe somebody (very likely Medâs cousin) found a absolutely ridiculous collection of PokĂ©mon cards, nothing like this has ever been seen before, ever. And started listing cards at ridiculous prices all over the internet. I spent about $700, can show you what I got.
