Then I had a '6.5' that should have been a '9' of this card then, cause it blew the doors off that '7'. I suggest a vision check with your local physician immediately.

Bobby I found a Doctor open today and he said my vision is 20/15 and agreed the card meets psa 7 standards.

Thanks for the advice. Pretty sure I can find PSA 7 cards that look similar to this one.

You most definitely can; however, it does not mean everyone agrees with the grade. I've had 3 different 56 Mantles in PSA 7, I can say each of them was clearly superior to this card.

That some might think the card is overgraded, and recall there have been periods when grading may have been a little more lax, hardly means there is anything fake about this card or that a scam is involved. The holder and flip look ok to me. I note that the flips in the link to the craiglist scam appear to have square corners.

So we still have nowhere near a consensus on this card. It is going back to the seller tomorrow. Our back and forth has been extremely civil maybe I can get him to resubmit to PSA and update.

Post an oversize cell phone pic of almost any card and you will find some expert who thinks it's fake and some expert who thinks it's overgraded.

If you plan to buy and sell I would really invest in a good scanner. You can get a top notch CCD element scanner for $60-$70 shipped, these provide CRYSTAL clear scans.
