I think this is the card you're referring to. If so, different cards.

Crappy service from BVG.

It is also surprising (okay, maybe not so surprising based on the overlooking of the coloring) that a card with such corner wear would end as a 7.5.

Hi David,
That was the one I was thinking of but looking at it again it is much nicer than the graded one. What a waste of a nice Aaron.

I gave that second card similar treatment in photoshop and here's the result…

It has similar features to the Aaron in question, but actually much less scribbling/coloring in of yellow. A cynic would say they did a much more professional job of being deceptive.

They holdered a clearly recolored Turkey red as well. I have very little faith in them

I would never buy a BVG card.

This card is now at auction and ends in a couple of hours. Last time I checked it was up to $185. I want to feel sorry for the winner, but it is so obviously fake that I have to think they know.
