counterfeit question

[JPDSPORTSCARDS]

I am hoping someone can help me with this one. So over the last 3 months I bought 2 separate 2004-05 Topps Photoshoot Kevin Martin autograph cards. Did they use hologram seals on the backside during that time period?

Thanks Jason

Going by this auction it looks like they did.

Also just as a note just because it has a sticker doesn't mean that it is authentic. A lot of fakers would just remove the sticker off a lower end card that has a similar sticker since there is really no way to tell the difference. The stickers were basically useless with no identifying features to the common person.

To add - I agree with pwaldo, also the football stuff was back "doored" like crazy from topps, so I would assume the basketball was as well, I would recommend not buying any of these if you haven't already.

yeah, topps used stickers then, but scammers use stickers too, so no sticker, yes it is fake, and with a sticker, yeah you guesses it, still could be fake, thus be careful
