Thanks for the comments guys. I'm feeling somewhat more at ease with the decision today.
I really think that a lot of it is down to the BVG slab. I've made other purchases of that magnitude at shows, but always with the SGC/PSA slabs that I'm fully comfortable with.
Scott-- it amazes me that two people on the board would have looked at the same card yesterday!
(Also, I updated pic of the card, as there was an odd black dot showing up on the right border that is clearly not on the card.
I swear the only imperfection I can see on the card is the small white fish eye near the top right corner.
The corners are scary even under 12x magnification. I'm starting to think it's undergraded...)
