Authenticity of pokemon cards links (little good they will do now_ i just recently conducted this research (long and arduous though it was) and found all the links and reads helpful to know when to flag when you may have fake cards or what are they are also known on the market as "cheat cards"
I ended up with a stack of them after buying them online- sold as authnetic.
The dead give away in my case was they cards features thousdands of hit points.
Do you remember this being a feature on the cards you sold?
Most pokemon cards have hit point values between 30-180 pts.
I hate it that i now know these things, but turns out I could enlighten someone with the knowledge, albeit, semingly a little too late

*research is key* once you conquer that everything else will be relatively seemless (most of the time) and fget you to "easy street" the quickest if you are diligent. Good luck.
Forigve the patronising of folk here- they have been accustomed to spending too much time here.
Many of them could do ebays job for them better than they ebay do themselves though, so you are in generally good hands, if not often rude hands.....
