I was looking at that too. Couldn't tell whether that was white card stock or just a really poor photo / flash from a camera.

While we're on the subject of the color white. Many sets printed on off-white card stock do not use ink for the white portions of the card image ... they just don't put any ink there and use the card stock for the white color. This means you should always compare the white in the image with the white on the borders. If they are different shades of white, that likely means the white on the image is ink and the card is a fake.

Visa vie the cropped back photo, a seller selling a genuine Chicle Bronco Nagurski would show the entire card.

Never disputed problems with card? Is the buyer saying he kept it?

My interpretation is that the Buyer is saying that the Seller never disputed problems with the card. Which to me sounds like the Buyer was implying that the Seller knowingly sold a fake card because the seller did not even put up a fight when called out on it.

Yep, that's the way I interpret it as well. I wish the penalty for doing that was stronger - unfortunately the seller's score is still over 90%.
