That would make some sense. Maybe he should have mentioned it in the listings?

perhaps! but then the cards would be considered altered and bring less dollars.

Here is a different V100 Ruth from the same seller:

He's had two of these for sale this week that are pretty good fakes IMO. The image looks pretty good on this one, but the corners are too rounded and the borders are too big. I wouldn't buy anything from this guy.
