Welcome to the contributors club. Is it possible to put a scan up? I have had teh same experience buying a T206 waddell portrait, it had a waxy feeling to front, I returned out the postage but that isn't always bad. Also the seller does not always know that they are selling reprints and should be willing to give you a refund.
One other point, you mention that you collect off grade cards. There is nothing wrong with that, I personally collect along that lines and do just fine and very happy with my collection. You will probably find that the majority of the people that read this board arein the same boat. Yes, There obviously is some wealthy people among us that can afford high grade cards and coolect that way but I think you will find that the majority of the collectors are like you and me, buying the best card ppossible within your buget.
Happy Holidays All
