Are There A Lot Of Fake Kem Cards On Ebay (UPDATED) . . .

Hey, are there a lot of fake Kem card sets on ebay. Cause I ordered a set and I wanted to know if they are real. Here's the link:

http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&rd=1&item=6154003850&ssPageName=STRK:MEWN:IT

So are they real, and how can you tell.

(UPDATE)
I also ordered another set of Kem cards from the same user. Can you guys tell me if these look real to you guys? And a lot of people have been telling me to get arrows, is there a diffrence between the arrows and the ones I chose? Here's the link:

Thanks

If they are what is in the picture, they're probably real, but you could probably get them cheaper at http://www.chessset.com/kemcards1.html and they have a better variety. They have a dual blue set of the paisley backs in bridge size for $14.95 and you wouldn't have to deal with all the scams that you find on eBay.

Yeah, If those are what your actually getting they look real to me. If you were interested in a set of arrows, nevada jacks website has them. $32.99 I think is the price. Just thought I would let you know if you were settling because you couldn't find any arrows.

1. Those look real, IF that's a picture of the actual decks being auctioned.
2. You can't really tell from pictures.
3. That seller's feedback rating is good, with LOTS of transactions, so that's a good sign.
4. But even a good seller can receive bad merchandise from someone else, since they are unopened packs.
5. I received a set of counterfeit Kems in real (old) Kem packaging. The picture on eBay was not the exact cards. The seller seemed as surprised as I was, and he immediately sent me a (different) replacement deck that was excellent. That was not this seller.
6. I doubt anyone would go to the trouble of making counterfeit Paisleys.
7. Based on my experience with 4-5 decks, there aren't many fake Kems on eBay. I've heard of some old decks and/or quality problems, but not many outright fakes.

Let us know when you get them. How can you tell if they are real? I can't really say if you've never played Kems before. But if they look and feel real good, you're OK.

Those are real, but not the prettiest of cards
