The $ 3.5 million Pokémon card box of Logan Paul could be false

Prominent members of the Pokémon card collector community have expressed great reserves about the record of Pokémon card capture of Logan Paul, pointing out that the rare card box seems to be false. Last month, YouTube's personality, Logan Paul, announced that he had bought a SE sealed box of Pokémon Base Set cards from the first edition by a whopping $3.5 million. The case supposedly contained six sealed reinforcement boxes and was promoted as the most expensive purchase of Pokémon cards in history. However, many remarkable Pokémon card collectors quickly pointed out a series of inconsistencies related to the history of the box, along with discrepancies with the box itself, which led some doubts about whether the case was really legitimate. The Pokémon TCG Poke beach site compiled much of the evidence in an article of last night, that everything indicates that Paul was a victim of a scam.

Poke beach points out that the case of the Pokémon cards appeared for the first time on the eBay site of Canada in March 2021 in a publication full of errors. The seller, «Number1pokemonmaster», provided multiple explanations about how they came to own the set, from buying the case in a real estate sale until you get the case as a birthday gift when they were children. While sealed boxes are typically sold by hundreds of thousands of dollars, the eBay auction finally ended at low price of $72,500, suggesting that most collectors distrusted from the authenticity of card boxes. Finally, the cards were purchased by the well-known collector Card Kahuna, who authenticated the case by the company Baseball Card Exchange, and the case finally reached Paul after several additional purchases. Poke Beach points out that Baseball Card Exchange does not have a Pokémon card authentication history outside the reinforcement boxes and did not provide any analyzes that will validate the authenticity of the case.

In addition, Poke Beach noted several inconsistencies between the box and other ancient Pokémon card cases. The label contains an E at the end of its missing serial number in other authentic SET base card cases, but the barcode does not reflect the additional letter. This could mean that the counterfeit added an E to the serial number so that it seems that the case was a first edition, but copied the bar code of a real case. The case label either has not aged as other card case labels, which again suggests that it is a fake. The film also does not match that used by Wizards of the Coast when sealing card boxes. There are additional details about the purchase that do not line up, you can find on the Poke Beach website.

Logan Paul's $3,500,000 First Edition Case IS FAKE!?

This would not be the first time Paul was deceived by a Pokémon card scammer. In 2020, Paul bought a Pokémon Illustrator Fake card for $150,000 and then ended up in the hospital when he hit a wall. And due to the popularity of Pokémon cards at this time, scammers seem to be increasingly elaborate.

Paul has not said what he plans to do with the box, so it is likely that we do not have a definitive answer if the case is authentic or not for quite some time. Wait some important consequences if the cards end up being false, which, of course, would take Paul to dominate another news cycle on pastime sites.
