The seller has 100% positive with 10,000+ feedback. They have other PSA graded cards for sale, some at much higher dollar amounts. I checked cert numbers for a few of this seller's four- and five-figure items. The certs checked out.

I really don't think this seller would jeopardize their business over one card that will sell for (likely) less than a thousand dollars. It just wouldn't make sense.

The auction still has a few days to go. There are a dozen or so bids. It is currently at a few hundred dollars.

If it were an obvious zero-feedback scammer, I'd simply post the link. All things considered, though, I'm thinking of messaging the seller privately instead.

Thoughts/suggestions?

Best of luck. I done something similar and the seller sent me a profanity filled response telling me how important they are in the hobby. They also tried to belittle me in several ways. All I know is they sold a 100% altered card as a rare printing error. I have learned trying to be helpful usually results in a scammer calling you names.
