    Thank you for your reply
    I think there are two types of judge sleeves for 2015: Dark Low and the Yu-Gi-Oh logo.
    Is the 2015 Yu-Gi-Oh Judge logo sleeve a fake?

    • Akira says:

      Yes, the 2015 Asia Judge logo sleeves and the Dark Law sleeves in black backing are two known counterfeits. Official Asia Judge 2015 Dark Law sleeves are in white backing.
