[RyanMDnyc]

Any expert opinions on that upper right corner of this case?

Thanks for the heads up. Wow, that is a quick quick flip. Looks like that frosting was up there on that one too but it just looks so much more obvious in the new scan. Eh, I think I will wait for another day.

Since there has been history of people switching cards on PSA cases (Jordan 86 Fleer RC), I stay away from any PSA cards with any frost corners. One of the reasons I personally prefer BGS for my keeper cards (PC).

I find it interesting that someone would sell that same exact card right after the buyer purchased it on eBay. I would guess the seller saw the frost, assumed it was tampered with and tried to get a refund, failed to get the refund, then decided to resell it on eBay.

Hey, I may be wrong. But if I'm spending big money on a card, I better get a card I have no questions with.

It definitely looks suspicious, but maybe it was dropped or something. Are there top quality fakes of this card? Nothing stands out to me that they put an "8" in a "10" case or anything. Centering and corners look solid at first glance.

Looks a little frosty. The seller would be wise to have it re-holdered

I doubt it's been compromised, but it's definitely worth sending to PSA on a reholder.

It actually looks like scuffing or got caught on something, I don't think that it was compromised.
