Haha, Al. I was being more metaphorical with that comment. I meant ridiculous in a playful sort of way.

There are 2 significant differences in both pictures for someone with a keen eye
the card in the left has a yellow print mark in the red stripe in the bottom right
that is typical of 72 topps and the card in the right doesn't have it, now the card
in the right has a long yellow print mark that runs along the bottom of the red
stripe just above the inside black line that is also typical of 72 topps and the card in the left doesn't have it, however i do believe you got cheated on purpose
is a simple case of lets give the bargain hunter a headache by the seller, because
of the final bid of under $3 to a card that normally would bring $10/15 he switched the card knowing that most people won't make a big deal about a small
transaction like that, and if you do giving you your money back still lets him come out ok when he does sell the card for lets say $8/12.

Seller does offer a 14 day money back, just send it back for your 2.93 refund. And let him know how you feel.

Nope.
That speck is white and is obviously a piece of dust or whatever. I have the blowups here. It's white.

And the yellow print mark in the red you're talking about? You can see the same texture in that area of his 'dream card.' Again, via the blowups. He obviously painted red over it in that area. He probably had the opacity relatively low so it blended well. It's good photoshop work, but it's reprehensible!

IT IS THE SAME CARD!!!!!!!!!!!!

W/E...see if you can send it back...go from there

Sorry - There's no way that's the same card.

Ignoring the white dot that probably is dust.

The registration is different. The blue arrows point to two areas where this shows well, the stars are much more red at the bottom. And the lighter colored area at the bottom of the picture shows red in the card at the right. The green arrows point to the yellow line Pepis mentioned. It's another thing caused by the red being printed high in relation to the other colors.

The orange arrow points to the white areas on the left side, which are smaller on the right card. This is from the black being printed slightly farther right.

The red arrows point to other print dots that are different. The one on his hat on the right card and the one by his knee on the left may be more dust, but the dark spot in the upper left of the picture on the right card and the lighter yellow spots in the banner just below that on the left card aren't.



The blowup from the auction shows a few more print spots that probably don't match either.

Yes, some stuff like the exact shape of the corners of the border will match. Because the plates are very nearly identical. And if they happen to befrom the same plate they should be exactly the same.

Your silly arrows don't prove anything! Didn't you hear the OP? It's the same freaking card!

Nice job, Steve!
