What are the indicators that it is fake?

Here's what I see:
1) A good looking card that if real should've been graded and authenticated. Too good to be true?
2) Also offering a Ruth non-graded card
3) The seller has one negative for "non-communication". Ebay member for two years
4) The seller doesn't have much if any history of card selling or buying in their feedback.
5) Money-Back guarentee
6) Sold several Louis Vuitton bags for $500-2000. Buyers provided feedback indicating the bags were authentic and exactly has described.

Questions I sent:

1) Terms of the money back guarentee
2) Where/when they got the card
3) Has it ever been graded
4) If SGC says the card is fake or alterted/trimmed, will the money back guarentee apply?


#6 is a little persuassive for me because they are a lot of fake LV bags on Ebay, but the seller appears to be selling real ones. A negative feedback for selling a fake/altered card and not honoring their money back guarentee would likely kill all future expensive bag sales. If I pay via paypal (with credit card), I do have some external guarentees of getting my money back.
