PSA has changed their label several times over the years. The current listing on their website works great for modern(last 4 years) cards, prior to that slightly different design. 10 years ago even different. I have a card I graded back in 2004, it doesn't have the PSA foil on the front. But had one on the back. I really wish PSA would post it on their site. But it is like currency, need to constantly make changes to keep ahead of counterfeiters. Good video, as it teaches alot, and more people need to be vigilant.

I have a good deal of slabs, but am starting to look at higher value cards. Videos like this will definitely help from me not getting had

Check out the links I tagged in my description and you should be well on your way to spotting fakes.

Important info. Thx for posting! Will check my slabs

@DanTheCardMan2 2 года назад

Thanks for the support - glad you enjoyed it. Moral of the story is to look at the slab and label as a whole, don’t get caught falling into the trap of just the QR code like so many people preach.

Thanks for this. Bought me first PSA card from someone. Don’t think it’s fake or anything but my experience as a collector with comics and especially sneakers I’ve learned to do my due diligence lol

What happened to the hobby? We’re going the wrong direction. So much shadiness, most kids nowadays don’t know the true joy of collecting. It’s backyard breaking to Marx cards to guys peddling fake stuff at shows. Collecting should be fun not joyless. Glad we have channels like yours and retro hoops putting out vids warning us and also showing the good side of the hobby. Keep it up 👍🏻

@DanTheCardMan2 2 года назад

Thanks mate, I appreciate the support. I just like to call it as it is and share my knowledge to try and help as many people as I can. I dislike when people gate-keep and keep things to themselves, or don’t speak up to protect their sponsors etc. The shadiness of the hobby has almost always been around, it’s just way more noticeable now because of the volume of people. We got plenty of good during this boom, and unfortunately plenty of bad too.

@kenfett7070 6 месяцев назад

Best thing to do is register all your PSA cards with PSA and before buying any PSA cards, check the cert number.

@auswolf9507 2 года назад

Great video keep up the great work. That all vintage cards website is great for looking at old labels and flips to compare with cards you are thinking about buying in older slabs. It has helped with a few purchases in the past. A small purple UV torch is a good buy to check the security hologram. You can also use it to check edges and corners of cards for chipping and fraying/whitening. Also it helps you see dust and foreign substances on card surfaces.

@DanTheCardMan2 2 года назад

Thanks mate, appreciate the support. Those are great tips as well, will add them to the list for when I make an updated video.

@auswolf9507 2 года назад

@@DanTheCardMan2 a UV torch is great for inked cards also. A must have for card shows or checking your own online purchased cards. Inking to hide edge and corner wear is sadly a thing in Magic the gathering and pokemon. Probably going to be more of a thing in the coming years.

@DanTheCardMan2 2 года назад

I need to grab one before the Sydney Hobby Hangout. I am a watch nerd too so this will come in handy when playing around with the lume lol.

@harleyhotch6720 Год назад

I have a couple slabs I purchased everything looks legit but the hologram in the back of the PSA logo says CLCT NASDAQ instead of PSA? Is that a fake? Or legit? Like I said everything else looks legit……

@drawstraw4483 Год назад

They just keep sending the real card in and popping the real Case would make the most sense, but yeah that frost is only unexplainable catch here? It must be a fake case too I'd think.

@amei_G80_BmwM3 3 месяца назад

Wil just looking down at the button right tell you if it’s fake? There should be a logo imprinted into the slab there, that’s how I usually tell

@DanTheCardMan2 3 месяца назад

There is lots of different ways to check, that’s one of them but I think some of the fakes use them now

@amei_G80_BmwM3 3 месяца назад

@@DanTheCardMan2 that’s true, and how bout the black light check, that’s also a great way too?

@mikeandroid3512 Год назад

What if I don’t have a uv light ? Can I use sunlight ?

@DanTheCardMan2 Год назад

Yep, the torch just makes it easier to focus where you want to look though

@mikebriggs7824 Год назад

The other way to see if a slab is real or not is by the raised PSA logo on the bottom right-hand corner of the slab itself. If there is no raised logo there, it's fake 👍, even the old slabs have this logo 👍 not completely sure about the very first slabs they produced though

@DanTheCardMan2 Год назад

Thanks Mike. Knew there was one or two that I missed!

Everything looks great for the card I have but the card moves a lot more than I would like. I feel like none of my other graded cards move as much.

@Keithclotfelter 5 месяцев назад

I feel like the QR code should have a password mailed with the sale of the card and when you go to PSA website and scan the QR code, you have to type the password that came with your card, if it passes through the website... it's another step of legit

@DanTheCardMan2 5 месяцев назад

I like the idea but how would that help prospective buyers wanting to check out the card for a potential purchase?

@Keithclotfelter 5 месяцев назад

@DanTheCardMan2 great follow up question. I guess when buying on a reputable site it would list that it includes the card. However, hard to say! You got me there

You didn't even discuss the fake slabs and how to spot them, just the label and how to see if a genuine slab was tampered with.

They are one in the same? You spot this stuff it will tell you if a label/slab is fake.
