I don't have a picture right now, but I have a Rampardos GL with Mismagius GL's text, and a Mismagius GL with Rampardos GL's text. Pulled them from the same pack, too.

Yeah, they're legit, pretty sure.

I ran into a similar case at a flea market where I met a Spanish man selling counterfeits. He had a Pangoro with the same text as Golurk PHF, so I'm guessing that your case with this is that you ran into some counterfeits.
 
How much are uncut sheets of pokemon cards from the sets jungle and fossil. They are 1st through third printing and non holo.

Sooo, I just found out that 4 FA EXs I pulled from AO have misaligned texturing, It is noticeable to the point where there are texture lines on the names like Mega Sceptile EX and it seems that they are likely from the same printing run. The misalignedness only happened to a few of the cards I got, but I think this is pretty rare as I looked through every single textured card I own, and NONE of them were like this. Does anyone have any clue how much these are worth/how fing rare they are?
 
Here's pictures of them, I tried my best with my ipod, this is just on ONE of the two Mega Sceptile EX I have that has this. You can really see the misalignment with the claw toe on the left side of the card of the first image below.

Such errors aren't exactly common, but they're definitely not rare either. Uncommon I guess. :p And like most printer errors, texture misalignment is hard to set a price to. It's not a particularly large or flashy misprint (like when cards have a part of another card on them or the back is upside down), so it probably won't affect the value much. Someone who specifically collects misprints might be willing to pay a bit more for it, though you might have difficulties finding such a buyer.
 
Damn, I was hoping to get a new car, but oh well. Also can you show me other examples of this? I've never heard of them before and was hoping to make some decent money off of ebay via the rare miss print. Also I think my FA hoopa with it has it the worst, its bottom texture goes into the area where a horizontal misscut's texture would be.
 
I think there have been a few times this has been posted about in either this thread or the misprint/error thread in Gen. TCG (though I don't recall if any photos were posted or not), and I've seen it mentioned elsewhere, too. I don't exactly have any images on hand, though, sorry; you'll have to hunt them down yourself if you want them. You could always try putting it up on Ebay for a higher price and see if you get any takers.
 
Hello!

I'm planning on selling a part of my collection on eBay (I need money...). I've done a sort of price evaluation myself, but I'd like to get some input from other people as well. I would be insanely grateful if you could help me out on this one!

If you decide to take a look, thank you so much! Really helping out!
Question is: Are these prices fair? Should I lower, or should I increase some of them?

How much are misscuts in general worth? I keep finding misscut cards at my local league, and while they're not HOLY ***** balls that's a misscut (ie it has another card going into it) they're still badly misscut, as in there's little to no part of a top/side of it. Is the QC of the cutting process going down or is it something else?
 
What would be a reasonable price for a Mew* 101/101 from Dragon Frontiers in NM-M condition? A lot of the prices I find on different websites are overpriced (I think) or for ones with folds, edge wear, etc.

Generally speaking, to a regular person, miscuts usually aren't worth anymore than a properly-cut card and maybe even be worth less. If you find someone who specifically collects miscuts, they may be willing to pay a bit more, but those people are few and far between, and generally they prefer the more extreme miscuts, such as those that have a bit of another card showing.

Quality Control for English language cards has been awful for years (since BW, really) and seems to be continuing to get worse as time goes buy. Miscuts and other production errors are growing increasingly common.

Unless it's PSA graded, the going rate is about $55-65. You might be able to get more than that if you want to haggle about condition.
