Default T206 - Is It Real Or A Reprint?

So there was an eBay listing for a T206 Ambrose Puttman that to me looked fake. So I decided to reach out to the seller while the auction was still active to address my concern. Was I wrong to do this?

Here was my message...

Hi, I'm not sure if you are aware but your T206 Puttman is a Reprint/Fake. Figured I'd let you know before a sale happens and you lose money on return shipping and other hassles. The main issue with the card is the wrong type size for the name. Second is the unnatural dark edges on the top of the card to give it that old look. You can find me online as Uncle Nacki and I also have many T206 video's to help learn about the T206 cards and set. Ron

Here was the response...

I appreciate your response but this card came from a major auction house and I have sold many more of them in the last 14 years. the top is from smoke damage and all t206's i have got from heritage have been authentic. thank you.

So what do you think? Am I loosing my mind? lol
