Could this be a CGC 8.0?

[joe_collector]

I was thinking about putting in an offer last night, then I noticed the HUGE crease - is this even possible or was the seller duped with cracked-n-replaced slab?

hard to believe that is better than a vg/fn with the crease and right edge wear

Even Heritage would be hard pressed to get an 8.0 on that POS.

Someone with CGC member access needs to get the Cert # and look it up.

[G.A.tor]

note the cgc grade is a 6.0...so, a mis label?

[joe_collector]

Or someone's fooling around with the label.

 

Either way, CGC needs to get ahold of this seller and figure out what's going on.

Or a doctored photo.

photoshopped?

notice the VF 8.0 is so much darker than the other print

[joe_collector]

And does the "VF" font look off to anyone else?

 

[osborn_fr]

a weak CGC 6.0

Yes. Something's wrong here.

[Sal]

The whole label looks FUBARed to me. Specifically, the hologram

Good eye ! Now for the explanation... Did anyone contact Ebay or the seller ? Or CGC for that matter.

8.0 font looks screwy, too

[Mac Man]

Font definitely looks off, but I wasn't able to detect any paste-overs or anything like that in my photo editing program. But, I'm also no scam expert either. Obviously suspicious so I'd walk away and possibly even consider reporting it given the info provided by Detective27kid.

I just contacted the seller. We'll see what happens.

[joe_collector]

The font is definitely off, as you can see below. The first image is of the CGC 8.0/6.0 book, while the second is a true CGC label. Notice how the V and F join together in the real book?

It doesn't even look to me like there is an inner well present - I wonder if it is a mix and match label and book :shrug:
