It is "card" but not an authentic one...

Edited to ad that as a rule of thumb, when a seller writes "BEING SOLD AS A REPIRINT" it is a reprint. Take it to the bank.

I'll take what Matt said one step further. When a seller says "I DON'T KNOW IF THIS IS A REPRINT...", it is a reprint then, too.

Wow, that is one s***ty reprint.

T206,

In case you were serious. The easiest way to spot the reprints is by looking at the white borders. They don't match and if you look at a number of the originals its easy to spot the variation in the color.

One final step further, if the seller types in all CAPS i wouldn't trust 'em.

Actually, it's only a "possiable" reprint.

A final note, you never, ever, ever buy anything from a seller on ebay with a 97.9 feedback.
