I will second what Ben said. It's fake.

The seller was talking in the language ebayese. In ebayese, "estate sale" means "fake" in English.

Notice how that card got awefully dirty and creased but those corners managed to stay pretty sharp. Also, follow the ridge of the crease on the back of the card starting from the top of the card. Notice the how it buldges up slightly ? In my opinion, real E135 cards aren't thick enough to cause that kind of effect.

If you haven't paid for the card yet - DON'T.
