(Tis ok, just how this game works! ;D)

True, yeah, this is how counterfeit stuff became a thing. I know a dude who creates fake MTG cards (more for fun, he mentions upfront these aren't real and in many cases its quite obvious) but if he really wanted to, he could do the wrong thing with them and trick people into thinking they're authentic.

Although this is kind of the reason why I'd rather buy things like this from an actual retailer that at least looks like they've been selling official merchandise for a while rather than some random guy found on eBay or so.
