Looks real to me and is a blazer, but your scan is not good enough to tell if the edges of the slab have frosting from being taken apart. SGC slabs are easy to "crack" with a butter knife. If the slab is sturdy and doesn't show signs of being glued back together, you should be fine. You could make the deal contingent on inspection at a card shop. It's quite possible the seller also has the new SGC-provided high res scans of the card when they graded it, so ask him/her for them. Gorgeous card, with only a hint of misregistration in the ballcap, so I'm leaning towards real. Good luck!
