Default eBay T206 Cobb - real or fake

I didn't want to tie up the main forum board with this, since it deals with a purchase, but given that it's a pricey card, and the eBay lister offers little insight, was wondering what people thought of this one:
http://cgi.ebay.com/1909-t206-Ty-Cob...item33639a0d6c

Aside from the grainy photos, it passes my first look in terms of border, font, and overall appearance. And yes, I'd assume it was trimmed. But even then again, "too good to be true" is ringing in the back of my ear. Can a Cobb even exist with a Fact 42 back? Do you think it's authentic?

Thanks,
--S
