The main reason I'm suspicious is that the seller has listed this (and his unnumbered 1997 one) as a LOT so that it doesn't go through eBay authentication...

Looking at the seller's sold auctions, there are numerous high end vintage cards sold in the same manner.
The seller has been on eBay since 2001, has a sold 167,000 items and has a 100% positive feedback. A little bit of googling also points out that the seller has a physical location in Florida. So it looks as though it is more like a long established seller who has decided to usurp the eBay authentication process, rather than one deliberately trying to pass off fake cards. The lack of reflection in the auction image is due to the fact the seller is using a scanner rather than taking photo's.
I personally would pass, as I do not agree with the seller intentionally usurping the authentication process, more than thinking the card is a fake.
