However, if I purchased a more expensive card that is raw, I will send it to a TPG w/ a shorter turnaround time, and not 45 business days.  Really, you need something like 10 business days b/c that ends up being something like 20 real days, and ebay counts 45 real days and not business days.  It's a huge pain, and one of the problems of buying raw cards from sellers that are not well known or have a solid reputation.
 
 If you are not certain about the authenticity of the card, and want a free "quick opinion," I would post it here.  Although there are a few that will say if you can't tell it's real, don't buy it, there are many, many people on this board that are extremely knowledgeable and helpful.  I can't tell you how much money that I have saved myself by posting a thread about the card in question on the board, and someone tells me it's fake.  There are a lot of people very willing to help you out on this board, for free, w/ a turnaround time faster than any TPG.
 |  I would like to out the seller. Would you do this on this forum or ebay forum. thanks.
