Card and Flip both look fake to me.

Already a thread on this.

Looks like it didn't sell, the seller ended the listing?

How about the second flip on the back?

Based on the helpful page Peter circulated I'd say clear fakee.

Agreed. But really the listing was such an obvious fraud that you didn't even need to scrutinize the card. If it looks too good to be true, it is.

Could have made it a 4 and basically asked for the same amount of money, and the red lights wouldn't have been so glaring.

Red lights were flashing for me the second I looked at the slab and flip. I didn't even need to look at the grade; I knew something was rotten in Denmark immediately. A lower grade wouldn't have made it an easier sell.

I'm floored that somebody actually bought this pos.

I'm surprised to see Net54 members actually thought this one might be real. Part of the case missing. The back side of the flip. The fact that a 25k card was listed for a BIN of 2k (I didn't look up the actual value, could be more or less).

I guess this explains how people fall for those ebay fakes. If members of the most knowledgeable baseball card forum consider purchasing something like this what chance does the casual collector have?

This. A modicum of common sense has to applied. The pop is 2. One was in the Merkle collection. The other was in the Spence collection. Now here it is on eBay looking like toilet paper in a pokemon case at the Jethroe County Swap Meet.
