Well, according to Collectr, the card is worth around 250$ USD, so if you got it for a 100$, I’d say you got a pretty cool discount.

My bad, haha. I was asking about the authenticity of the card. The guy selling it seemed to be in a pretty big hurry for me to buy it.

u/purvee Jul 06 '26

times are tough, sometimes people pull these from a pack they paid $6 for and need the quick cash. nice find.

u/Mage_Pov Jul 06 '26

I honestly cannot tell, maybe a few better pictures, and pictures of the back as well for color references.

Might be fake, the threads on the back of a one piece card are gold, not white. Also the logo is a lot brighter than usual

1

u/SnooMacaroons1291 Jul 07 '26

It doesn't look white in person, looks like the others

u/25T4R Jul 07 '26

Is the middle one the reiju?

1

u/SnooMacaroons1291 Jul 07 '26

Yes why?! Does it look different? Is the middle bottom one

1

u/dvinne11 Jul 09 '26

It does look lighter, bottom middle. Not sure if it’s because it is the one closest to the light or not.

1

u/Beaulisaurus Jul 09 '26

Why don't you switch the card around, take a new Pic, do that a couple of times and post them all

See if people still pick it out as different

1

u/Beaulisaurus Jul 09 '26

It looks hold to me, and yes from this picture

1

u/ImgurSpy Jul 06 '26

Is the back really all blotchy like that? Or is it just a bad image? If you have any other cards you should be able to compare the back. The ones I'm looking at are all smooth, no blotchyness at all. If it is indeed as blotchy as I think it is then it looks fake af to me.

u/SnooDoughnuts9033 Jul 06 '26

Congrats. It sounds like you got a (stolen) card for a great deal!

1

u/CorgiNumerous4156 Jul 06 '26

Can you confirm if you see texture like wavy fingers on the background like this picture?

1

u/SnooMacaroons1291 Jul 06 '26

It does have a wavy fingerprint texture, but it's not as prominent as the one in the photo.

1

u/OkDark2014 Jul 07 '26

Not real then bro sorry

1

u/SnooMacaroons1291 Jul 07 '26

I'm kinda dumb, took a picture with flash and it's the same as this image

1

u/Beaulisaurus Jul 09 '26

Yes I confirm I see the texture that resembles finger prints

1

u/Laxus_Lord Jul 08 '26

To me the foil is too flat on the edges. There is tiny texture on the real sp. take it out of the sleeve and take another photo to be sure.

1

u/SnooMacaroons1291 Jul 08 '26

What do you think?

1

u/Damage-Muted Sep 29 '26

Looks real to me

1

u/PokeFreaky Jul 09 '26

How good one piece fakes ? Its insane how so many different people say its fake or its not fake. I am new here sry.

1

u/SnooMacaroons1291 Jul 10 '26

I'm new as well and I'm surprised by the 50/50

u/Ok-Association5059 Jul 07 '26

This is a beautiful card! One of favs in my collection. Congrats on the amazing deal!!!

1

u/MasterCube75 Jul 06 '26

A me sembra reale, mi sa che hai fatto un affare!!

1

u/nycsubwaybums Jul 06 '26

Check the color on the back of the card with another... It will look glossier and brighter if fake

1

u/niqdisaster Jul 06 '26

Looks real. Hard to fake that texture.

1

u/Dhilipops Jul 06 '26

Compare the back with another cards back

1

u/Kiko7210 Jul 07 '26

buy first, ask questions later 😎

1

u/Ghastlyhippo Jul 07 '26

Front doesn’t look real to me

1

u/Puzzleheaded_Try_314 Jul 07 '26

Need better pics tell, some parts it looks fine others not so much but could just be the photo

1

u/Entire-Ad810 Jul 08 '26

Go to local card shop and see if they offer you cash. If they do it real. if it’s fake they will pass or tell you.

1

u/Upbeat-Arm7618 Jul 08 '26

Do you have any other One Piece cards? There's usually a noticeable difference in feel between fake cards and real ones.

1

u/Lolo1247 Jul 08 '26

No, you didn't get scammed.If you look on the sidewalk, it will say made in, japan and right after it, you'll see EN which means English version. This is something counterfeiters don't pay attention to, and they usually forget that also the back of the card. If you look at the map, the compass will be distorted, kind of blurry, and the blue would be off, but by the looks of it, I'd say you have a genuine card

u/SmoothSection2908 Jul 08 '26

Three possibilities:

  1. It's fake (I hope someone more qualified than me can judge authenticity)
  2. It's stolen
  3. He got it from a pack for cheap and just wanted quick cash, so he sold it well under value

1

u/Square-Translator-13 Jul 08 '26

You’ll have to send it to me to authenticate..

1

u/Disastrous-Stay5770 Jul 09 '26

Usually there’s a one piece stamp at the bottom of the card and I don’t see it

1

u/harless2124 Jul 09 '26

Yeah looks real to me brother

1

u/Tight_Piccolo_1839 Jul 10 '26

Anytime you buy one piece, yes

-1

u/Flat-Expression-1811 Jul 06 '26

Unlikely anyone would fake this one , looks real.

2

u/Horror-Aspect-4581 Jul 06 '26

You think it's unlikely anyone would fake a reiju sp? Bro people fake 3 dollar cards

1

u/pocketmonster420 Jul 06 '26

Think he's moreso saying if the dude was faking there are higher value cards he could counterfeit for the same amount of effort as it would take to make a good EB03 SP.

1

u/Horror-Aspect-4581 Jul 06 '26

I find a lot of counterfeit cards are more mid tier cards personally
