Ryan, this one is unbelievable, wow. I mean, at first glance, from across the room, with one eye closed, you can immediately sense the card is way "off".

Why don’t they have other graders there to doublecheck?

Because then they would have to double their already exorbitant fees.

The head of the grader distribution department saw that it was a "Young" card, so he sent the card to a young grader.

Well, someone got cheated (Never Say Never, haha)

Hopefully the "winner" gets wind of this thread or the one on BO, and can get proper recourse. But I'd give it only a 50-50 chance at this point.

Especially for having such relatively wide borders.

That card shown is a really poor fake. A 6 yr old could tell it's fake. But all wide borders are not fake...

Oh, I get it. My comment was made because:
  1. The fake card has very wide borders
  2. The card also measures quite a bit short

The two conditions are mutually exclusive. A T206 with wide borders shouldn't leave that much room within the holder.

My guess is that the holder is not a standard T206 holder, but larger, hence the space. I bet that card is more likely larger than a real T206.
