There were a large number of fakes out there and very few real ones. The fakes are easier to spot because they usually have sharp corners. They originated mostly from a seller on ebay, Venezuelan Cards, who has been very reliable for all other Venezuelans. The moderator/owner of the Yahoo Topps Venezuelan Group brought this to everyone's attention, you can probably find more details there. Turns out I have a fake '72 Reggie Smith, which is pretty different from the real 72's I have. On ebay at the moment, there's one raw and one graded Kaline. I'm positive the PSA one is a fake for a number of reasons if you take a close look. I think the PSA graded lower because of a small crease. RE: Topps Venezuelans - Do you have any? - goodgod1979 - 04-27-2016 Been stacking some Braves VZs over the last couple of months. Couldn't figure out how to post them till now.

Yes after so long i did it!!! Heres the last card finally!!!! im stoked!!! RE: Topps Venezuelans - Do you have any? - goodgod1979 - 04-27-2016 Congrats!!! I've been seeing you everywhere looking for that card and I'm glad to see that you were able to snag it. So, how did you come by it? Did you overpay Dean? Don't worry if you did. Seeing it staring you in the face for so long, if it were me I would have bought it too. :-) RE: Topps Venezuelans - Do you have any? - alfredoleal2001 - 05-02-2016 (04-27-2016, 05:39 PM)goodgod1979 Wrote: Congrats!!!

Fortunately I came across a yahoo group about topps venezuelans a few years ago and someone had it for 30 bucks. Then i saw an ebay lot for auction and the card was there too. I contacted the seller and told me hed ask the auction winner if it was ok for me to contact him about the card, I did and bought off him for 15 bucks!!

Haha, been trying to get it for months and then it falls in your lap; that's great. I've still got a ways to go with my collection. I'm pretty much at a point where all the cards I have yet to even see, let alone get a chance to buy.
