New Sticky/thread

[ozballer23]

Can we have a sticky/thread for fake patches where we can keep track of them? Cheers....

There's a website that is doing this. I can't recall it's address tho.

You would need to find someone to host the images too I would imagine.

I know there's the website, but it doesn't have stuff that we find on it, i was thinking something more related to this site...

we should make the site as a link on our site somewhere, so its easy to find

It's http://www.fakepatchcards.com/

If someone is already doing it, easier to contribute to that site and have it all in one place ? I don't mind having a thread with the info, but personally I think we could sticky too many threads and then you have to scroll down 3/4 of the page to get to the real posts.

Happy to hear suggestions though.

i reckon putting all the fake patch cards we see should go into the site

Given there is a site devoted to it...and that itself has only had 4 basketball cards which it can confidently identify as fake, what would be the point of having a "fake patch" sticky here? How many identified as "fakes" here are actually legitimate, how many are proved to be fake, and how many are just assumed to be?

Could MAYBE have a thread that maybe collates/summarises the overall ozcardtrader feeling about patches discussed here, but it seems like it is pretty hard to categorically identify a fake patch card (ie. the LBJ exquisite shown on www.fakepatchcards.com could even just be a photoshop job).
