The title says "slabbed-graded 30-Good-SGC", but obviously not slabbed, graded, or having anything to do with SGC.

Notice the paper loss is conveniently at the spot where the word "reprint" should be & it looks like the card was aged a bit, possibly using the tea bag trick.
Here is a reprint (taken from eBay) that you can see the backside. |

I sent him a message this morning stating just that. I didn't spell it out here but, yes, it is artificially aged and the paper loss eliminated the Reprint Identifier.

Probably a Reprint
Another comparison points this card to a reprint. Notice the curly image in the bottom right corner, the reprints all have this smudged top right curl. Also, on all reprints I have seen the ink appears thicker compared to originals.

The seller still hasn't taken down the listing but there are no bids, as yet.

I sent the guy a PM last night alerting him that it was a reprint. He asked how I was sure and I pointed out how to spot a fake. The listing was gone soon after. We will see if it reappears but it looks like he did the proper thing.

I did the same thing before I started this thread. Maybe you are more convincing than I am. Or it could have been the Tag Team effect
