To be honest I'm not sure if they are authentic. I'm kinda skeptical due to the fact that it has "REAL" printed on the plastic wrapping. My reasoning is that if they were authentic why would they have to advertise it on the packaging. unless this is a new line, but I don't see it anywhere on Copag's site.

These are Brazilian cards remember. Real in this case is not the English synonym for authentic, but the Portuguese/Spanish word for Royal, hence the crowns on both sides of the word. Still, it is strange that they only show up on ebay Quote:

That makes more sense with "REAL" on the packaging now. Quote:

it is unusual that they would put the name of the line of cards instead of copag in the packaging...most of the other lines of copag cards still say "copag" on the actual packaging
having said that, it is still possible that it is a brand new line or a line that's not usually available in north america. copag has a lot of different styles that are not listed in any of its or resellers' sites.
maybe more announcements are coming? |

They could easily be chinese copies. They copied the Fournier design last year as I recall. Ask Trident if they're authentic.

now that we're discussing its authenticity...why is the ace of spades design (specifically the copag logo) different in the auction pics. why is the knight on the horse logo missing?
the auction has the main picture without the proper logo on the ace of spades while the smaller pics have the correct logo
the smaller picture of the packaging has the copag logo missing on the packaging.
it just looks like the pics have been altered in some way |
