Counterfeit Wemby rookie cards caught crossing the Canadian border

I believe it was last week, Border patrol caught a shipment of counterfeit goods that included the Wemby Prizm rookies crossing the border into NY. I did not hold one, but by the pictures, they look pretty good. it was a shipment of goods originating from China.

    Wonder what took them so long to get here. He has been a hot card for awhile now. But then again this may not be the first attempt to get them here. Probably some have already arrived.

    I always wondered about that in regards to the Prizm Pandora /400 player and team lots emanating from China on eBay. They only made so many of those boxes and the team and player lots pop up on eBay daily

    From the reports, the wembys had print quality issues that could be detected easily.

    I would pretty much assume any raw card from China is fake. And we already know fake slabs have come out of there

    Also 1oz fake gold bars from China. Don’t ever buy bullion on EBay

    Ebay has a return window so that you can test the metals and report the seller for a return...

    Yes they do but the meaning of the Post was China is counterfeiting EVERYTHING.

    They actually break a lot of product overseas but this is definitely a problem that I'd hope both countries could tackle for the health of the hobby.

    They can't stop China from sending deadly drugs , I doubt they can stop anything that China sends.
