    Very hard to say from the pics, the one thing that stands out to me is the characters are a little hazy and lacking in confidence, this is usually a warning sign.

    that's what I was assuming the characters are light but at those times the mark do be ugly during the ming period? That's the only photos he provided that's the reason I can't decide if it's real or fake is an old guy I'm assuming he doesn't like taking pictures.

    Ming marks are signed the way a calligrapher does, so you see a thickening of the lines at some ends (or beginnings) of the character. The lines are strong, and as Ce said, written with confidence.
    The mark on this vase is meant to be a Tianqi mark, but you can see the proper way of writing it here:

    As you can see, in the top right and lower right characters, the thickening on the bottom right hand lines.

    The mark is hazy, even in Christie's site have cleaner mark but does sometime be mid 19th for me usually when I question myself this long usually means warning ⚠️. The link is good. Might be apocal mark or a good fake. For $100+shipping I'll have to pass. Thanks guys

    Good to have your own warning system, and good to trust it.:)
