and one more point to look at... notice that Dizzy is die-cut, while the other 3 aren't. What's up with that?  |

and one more point to look at... notice that Dizzy is die-cut, while the other 3 aren't. What's up with that? Hmmmmmm.......I'm a little confused here. 1st: The Die-Cut is a problem. I looked at the wonderful Bukimi Kum Tracker thread that robiero25 started - and it looks like NONE of them have a die-cut sticker. 2nd: To galaxy's point - there IS a lot of 'green' BK banners out there - so it's possible the banner is not an issue. 3rd: There appear to be 2 different banner types - the 'OS-1-9 curved banner' & the 'OS10-15/ANS straight banner'.
HERE'S WHERE it's evident they might be FAKE:
- In the 'tracker' thread...EVERY card that has the 'curved' banner style, has a 'Peel Here' arrow (without the 'Peel Here' text). The ones with the 'straight banner' do NOT have the arrow.
If you look at Carlos' pics - NONE of them have a 'Peel Here' arrow - yet they ALL have the 'curved banner'.
My final thought is that they ARE FAKE!!! |

and ANOTHER thing.. :lol1:
what are the 3 cards leaning against? Surely it isn't the window, which is a good 3-4 inches behind them. Are they standing up on their own? and if they are, in fact, leaning up against the window, they would be tilted farther back, don't you think?

and I imagine the wrappers could be easily fabricated. I think, the butler did it with the rope, in the Ballroom.....  Nice work guys! What a little fugger..... Looks like he spent himself some time trying to rip people off. |

 The thing that screams "fake" to me is his thumb. It looks so unnatural there on the card -- doesn't seem to be touching it. |

NOthing makes you cooler than pretending to have a Bukimi Kun. Here's an example:  Wot you DON'T know is that its really a Bukimi Kun that some Jap cops got ahold of. With their quick thinking and amazing ability to replicate the American version, they took a bunch of crayola crayons and wrote "Garbge Pail Kids" and put a bunch of letters together that looked american, thus creating the name. BUT WAIT! THERE'S MORE!! Among the group of Jap cops was one name Chang Ching, hes most famous for writing on rice grains and such, so they had him use a hair dipped in ink to add that finishing touch: "Peel Here" Now doesn't that make me cool since i have the only one in the world and it' real? HA! i had to take it off of ebay because the demand was SOOO high! I heard a guy got shot in Detroit after he found out his neighbor was trying to outbid him for it.  |

What tells me they're fake is the fact that those card numbers arent the right numbers. #5 isnt jay decay in the hebrew/japan series. He's usuing OS USA card numbers.The guy cant even bootleg the cards properly. what a fuggin idiot.

yeah my opinion is they look photoshopped. all of them. Some people can make photoshopped pictures look very real....but just many things tell us they are fake...and like I said they even look photoshopped.

someone from this board emailed me a few weeks back asking for my advise on these bukimi cards that someone was trying to sell. i told them to be very careful and after i viewed the photos i was about 90% sure they were fakes. but now i now it is this Carlos bloke who has them i am 200% sure they are fakes. the guys a fu**ing fraud, and people need to be very careful.
what i noticed from the photos that told me they are fakes was.
1. THE CARD NUMBERS ARE WRONG
2. THERE IS NO WRITING DOWN THE SIDES OF THE CARDS
3. 1 IS DIE CUT AND THE OTHERS ARE NOT.
1 possible explanation i had for the numbers being different was that maybe these bukimis could be cards separate from the bukimi set, as with the Hebrew sets there are also cards that are not part of the set. but these cards have backs like USA cards do but in Hebrew, meaning that if this was the case and these were newly discovered bukimi cards the backs would be like USA card backs but in Japanese. when i later received a photo of the backs i knew they were fakes.
i really hope no one falls for this guys lies and his quite convincing BUT FAKE pics.
one other thing to point out the card numbers a wrong for bukimis but neither do they match the USA numbering.

just heard back from a friend of a friend with translations for the 4 photographed cards of our fraudster friend carlos
the results:
Ochino tsuda ( no meaning )
Ryoniya kyu ga ( no meaning )
Ruikumyo ( no meaning )
Ekato ( picture kato ) what ever that is.
i think that if any one was still unsure that his cards were fakes, will now agree he is full of S*IT.

That is the dumbest thing I have ever heard! "My bmx bike"... lol Cory is right, BK's are like paper. Why not buy a Michael Jordan Rookie or Mickey Mantle? People would understand more.... Better yet, just buy my Czop Mr. Big Spender, your gonna have to spend double your money, but I will promise you double your sound...or your money back! P.S. Carlos is that you? |

A zero feedback winning bidder would need to pay quickly via Paypal...or the Bukimi goes back on ebay (or to the 2nd highest bidder)...The current high bidder is convinced he's gonna win this thing...My final price prediction...$349...galaxy

Not daft, really, as I'm sure there are some for sale. Just be very cautious.
