It looks like a nice VG-EX with a fairly scarce back. A good looking card. So you got a reasonable deal, I'd say. Sometimes collectors crack them out of the PSA cases because they like the look of the cards raw or in plastic sheets instead of those bulky plastic cases.

Thanks and thanks for the pm's. You made it quite clear that the dealer is legit. My intent wasn't to start a smear campaign. I was just (and still) amazed by someone spending the $ to get a card (this low in value) graded only to turn around and cut it back open. I probably should not have used the "getting taken" line. I would have paid even more than I did. It is a great looking card and I need a EPDG. You know how that goes.

this seller is legit. years ago we would go head to head on the tough backs on ebay-around 2002 or so-he had a killer 206 collection but appears to be selling it off.
we traded a few emails when his listings popped up last week-i would say no worries even if the card is broken out of the holder

DVD case
I think the seller may be use Turbolister. A few months ago if you listed certain items with Turbolister you were forced to pick from several "condition" categories that did not actually fit the listings, such as the VG - DVD jewelcase description for this auction. The newest upgrades of Turbolister have fixed this problem.

Card
Card looks fine, don't worry about it being out of slab, card appears to be that grade. I have just started to break all my low grade stuff free of slabs. I like having cards raw, I save all the SGC/PSA labels. I do this mostly with commons/lower grade where the price is compatible slabbed or raw. ..

done before
I know of 1-2 people that take pictures of their cards in their slabs, with them holding them, and then they crack them out and save the flips. I have some raw cards to play with but feel better about the more expensive ones if they are in holders, for myriad reasons.

When looking at the image depicting the back of the card, the top edge and the top of the left side looks slightly trimmed. Without use of that forensic scan business it is always possible that the card with that cracked slab isn't the card that was in the slab. Others here think the card is ok, so it may well be. When you get it, hold the card so the card's edge is closest to your eye, put some light on it, and examine that edge. Also, set the card on its edge on a flat surface and see if the edge is straight. Wish you well with it.

Yes, people crack cars out for lots of reasons. And sometimes sell them later along with the flips and sometimes more. I bought a low grade AB Back and when I got it it I was surprised to see it shipped in the remnants of its SGC slab. Open slab, flip, card, just no insert. Someday I may get it reholdered, but it's no big deal, being an obvious SGC10.

So did this card arrive yet? How are the edges?
