I like your funny weird posts but in all seriousness are they done just to troll?
it also has been proven that private sellers have shilled their cards...I not saying shilling never happened with prob and pwcc..but its less likely to occur and more difficult ..plus the fact that everyone agrees its not happening on a 425k card is nice to know as well

some people like my posts..its not like every one of my posts are hated. ...people that troll like to accuse others of trolling....

What a beautiful card! I agree that A) the stain should have been noted, and B) it doesn't detract much. That said, the PWCC write-up focuses on this being at the very top of PSA 8 examples, which I'm not sure is true when considering the stain.

On another note, and this isn't to knock the card at all...looking up close, it's easy to notice the top black border is too long. I wondered if all 52T #311 cards had this same border issue, and it looks like many don't. Perhaps it's speaks to the perfectionists at Topps back then that this card would be redone to fix such a small issue. Or more likely, perhaps it speaks to the general variability in their setup and printing back then that minor things like this might vary unintentionally from run to run.

Purely academic mind wanderings here as this is a card I definitely will never own!

I never seen an auction house ever say on a 100k+ card that a card isn't in the top echelon for the grade...
