Erick, SGC plays things super-safe.

You bought this from someone who wasn't selling it as an upside-down back, so they weren't trying to screw anyone. My bet is that it's real.

Is there any signs to you, since you have the card in hand, that makes it seem like it could be rebacked? I have at least 10 Old Judge cards that are rebacked and usually the back or front will be a little wavy, also glue marks are noticeable if they soak through cards and it's tough to have everything line up 100% on all four sides. With the condition that card is in, it seems hard to believe it is rebacked and still looks good in the scans.

If that card is rebacked, whoever did it did one hell of a job.

They probably got it right. I bet the edges, under magnification, will expose the issue. Sorry to see that....If it's any consolation, we all make mistakes. I recently bought a counterfeit card and cracked it out of a no-name holder. My bad. Then I sold it and ended up with a bigger issue. Of course I immediately refunded the buyer of mine, but it still sucks. I am sure that won't be my last mistake...but I won't make that exact same one again.
