If you don't want any surprises bite the bullet and spend more and buy a 9 or higher. If you buy raw and it's an older card you should have common sense and believe there is probably something wrong with it otherwise it would have been in a graded holder by now.

I’m not arguing that you shouldn’t have common sense and err on the side of caution when buying raw. I’m talking specifically about the widespread practice of sellers purposely hiding these kinds of flaws.
I’ve never even graded a single card and this still bugs me.
