NYCCARDVAULT ebay seller - trustworthy? - coltsfansince85 - 04-04-2014 I seem to recall seeing this seller in another member's thread questioning the authenticity of a printing plate. I've never purchased one, so a little advice would be appreciated! RE: NYCCARDVAULT ebay seller - trustworthy? - branesergen - 04-04-2014 They are back door issues from the bankruptcy. Legit? Possibly, but not pack inserted. RE: NYCCARDVAULT ebay seller - trustworthy? - coltsfansince85 - 04-05-2014 Kind of what I figured. Thanks! RE: NYCCARDVAULT ebay seller - trustworthy? - Marinocollector - 04-05-2014 He's making his own printing plates. He's taking scanned images of card, using a sepia tone, and then has the images put on metal sheets. You can tell its not real because the gold foil on the Edgerrin James would not appear on a real printing plate. For example, look at this NT plate: http://www.ebay.com/itm/Tony-Jefferson-2013-National-Treasures-PRINTING-PLATE-Rookie-d-1-1-CARDINALS-/231197752568?pt=US_Football&hash=item35d475bcf8 Notice there is no foil area where it appears on the real card? If it was a real Pacific printing plate, it would show a white "cloud" image where the name appears, instead of the gold lettered name. RE: NYCCARDVAULT ebay seller - trustworthy? - coltsfansince85 - 04-05-2014 Awesome information, Marinocollector, thanks! RE: NYCCARDVAULT ebay seller - trustworthy? - savagenate - 04-05-2014 Better make sure to report that guy lol RE: NYCCARDVAULT ebay seller - trustworthy? - shezdoni - 04-05-2014 If your asking about the plate in your scan, I am pretty sure that Pacific never released any plates for Aurora, and that they destroyed their plates after the printing run was done
