Ive gone through what info i can find distinguishing between real/fake one. Mine has the softer edges, loose post, shallow/soft undercut, etc. i just would like verification from someone with more experience with grails…i appreciate any help

Yeah the only thing giving me pause is the lack of pyramatte finish appearance in just the cup… looks like a regular polished throw there. Everything else looks good though besides that, but that specifically is unusual

I said the same thing. The cup lookspolished, but catch looks pyramatte. Thats why i wanted to check. Someone wants to buy it, and i have no experience. I dont wanna sell something as legit if it isnt. I also dont know what to price it at.

Looks like someone started a polish job but then either gave up or wanted it shiny in the cup. It would be difficult to mimic pyramatte finish in the catch zone, my vote is it’s legit
