Default Misrepresented on eBay?

Saw this card on eBay listed as a "Factory #28 error"

It is clearly a Factory 25 with a little paperloss.

I brought this to the sellers attention and he blocked me...

I guess he's hoping to dupe some new Collector

What do you guys think?

The slab clearly says it’s an error!

The guy has almost a thousand fake graded cards by a made up company listed. I wouldn’t expect a stellar response from an obvious scam artist taking advantage of collector ineptitude.

Looks like an impending lesson in buying a card, not a slab.

For years I always wondered if my T213-2 of Donlin shown below actually said ."200 batter". Some fine folks on here pointed out that it was indeed just the normal ".300" with an excellently placed strip of paper loss/crease/print defect. My brain still wants to see it as a "2", so I have learned to tell my brain to shut up and concentrate exclusively on motor functions.

Dang, it sure looks like an 8 when I zoom in. I keep looking at it and can't see how it could be a 5. That's wild.
