I Know PSA Doesn't Grade These, But Thoughts on This Jordan Star Card

Kep13

I looked online for info on spotting fakes, but figured some here would know more...I did find some old threads from back in 2010 and such, but maybe folks have better/more info on spotting the fakes. What are the surefire "tells" that a card is fake or a reprint?

Likely not a real Star #101 but could possibly be a 1996 Topps reprint that will say Topps card company on the back and the word Reprint if it is.

Fake. Fake. Fake.

Color's off and it's too big.

100% fake. Borders are way too large to be legit.

Those borders are very comparable to this Topps reprint that I had graded & sold awhile back. Depending on their asking price,it would still be a decent card to grade then sell if it is the Topps 85 Reprint.

The card is part of a collection of 170+ Jordan cards, most of the late 90's Upper Deck variety (special Jordan sets, like Rare Air, i.e. common cards)...asking price is way too much, as consensus is this isn't a real Star card,
