I bought some foil dazes on eBay last week at a pretty good price. They all look essentially the same. This one has some strange damage on the bottom corner. It's a circle. It shows on both sides.
Might just be impressions from something, unless they seem a little too centered. Then i would ask about them. The foil on it looks a little funky, but i could be wrong.
Hopefully you didnt buy them NM because i would call impressions like that played quality, as they might even come up marked in tournaments if it shows through the sleeve just a tiny bit.

Whats the big deal about black lotus you ask? Well you see, there is no big deal about it. It IS the big deal.
It's the only one of the 4 that has that on it. Those are all pictures of the same card if that was a bit confusing. I have a foil daze that I know is real and the foiling looked basically identical to me.
EDIT:
It also passes the light test, and I looked at it through a jewelers loupe and it seemed fine there as well.
Ohhh, i thought those were all the card in question. I mean if it passes the tests then i wouldnt worry about it. You could do a rip test on it to be sure... but i dont think that would bode too well for you.

They look real to me. The little dimple is probably due to pressure from binder clips; pretty common on otherwise minty cards. (Something about the Masques and Invasion block foils seems to hold up extremely well over time; I've seen more more of those in pristine condition than other foils.)
I would like to add that sometimes knowing the prices can help you at least a tiny bit in determining if they are real. The price of FOIL Dazes right now is somewhere between $75-90. I couldn't get the pics to come up bigger, but the small pics seem real. You checked through a jeweler's loupe and that's enough for me to believe them.
