What do you think - T206 Young on eBay

[MVSNYC]

The seller's rating is 91.7%

I'd stop right there.


Re: the card, looks authentic, but some funky edges (top & bottom), and if it were to somehow get a numerical grade from PSA/SGC, would be a 3 or 3.5 at best with those corners.

I'd avoid...certainly at that price, and from a seller with such a lousy rating.

Yea I noticed that too - but when you look at how he gets that he has only 12 sales over the last 12 months with 1 negative out of the 12??? Yes also a red flag -

Yes, 1 negative feedback out of 12 = 91.7% rating (11 divided by 12). But moreover...read the 2 negative reviews over the last 12+ months.

Not spectacular feedback.

I think it gets an A.

On the back the upper left corner looks whacked. Like they stopped cutting it too soon. On the back the bottom right corner has the same look.

Might be a factory cut but I think authentic based upon the other cards listed, feedback, and fact that most cards are in legitimate holders.

Wonder if anyone knows the seller?????

Too many red flags that would make me want to purchase. That being said, I do have a Cy Young Portrait PSA Graded 3(MC). Not saying that this stuff isn't legit, but I have seen in the last few months the counterfeit raws of Ty Cobb, coincidently being sold with other highly valuable raws, and high graded cards. This almost falls in to that category based on how uneven it is in the slab. I would take my money elsewhere. I do also agree that it appears to have a trim at the top. I enjoy collecting these cards, and one reason is because of all the years i worked in printing. So I think I can spot the obvious, and that looks to obvious to be more of a trim vs miscut in my humble opinion.
