Mystic vs. Mojave

So can anyone explain the major differences between a mystic and a mojave. I cannot tell the difference if my life depended on it. The only thing i saw is the mystics have darker black spots than mojaves. I want to make sure I buy a mystic rather than a mojave.

This is why you want to buy from someone with a good reputation :gj:
Make sure to check Fauana BOI and on this site to see if the person is reputable and inquire about the seller especially if you can't find the person already listed as a good guy or bad guy.

Thayer are so close in resemblance that even a reputable seller can make a mistake. I want to see if anyone on here not a true difference.

I'd like to hear this too! Anyone out there working with Mystics? I don't know much about them and haven't seen one in person. Info please :)

I don't have a mystic but I do have a phantom which is the same or similar. I've heard people say that the phantom looks like a low grade mojave. I disagree, I think the golds aren't as bright but I love the darker deeper color of the phantom. Buy from someone you trust. Mine came from Mike Wilbanks, I highly recommend him...:gj:

I would def agree with you about the Phantom. I will buy from EBN, he's a good guy!

there is almost no difference between the two I would love to see how its keyed to answer other then buy from a reputable dealer I would love to know characteristics to look for as well as other things to eye myself on.
