Chance of upgrading to a 9?

I just purchased this with the last ebucks promotion. Interested in opinions of whether you think this has a chance at a .5 upgrade or lucky it received an 8.5 grade. The line through the team names on the back is a small surface crack on the case. Opinions appreciated. Thanks.

    No. Something about the Corner tips I don't like. It may have been an 8 that got bumped to an 8.5 already.

    I'd say no with that bottom left corner. 8.5 is generous imho

    I'm not seeing three strong corners so no chance at a 9 imho.

    It's a beautiful card. Nice pickup.

    None. It appears to be holdered correctly.

    Work hard and you will succeed!!

    I'd say very low likelihood of getting the bump. Nice card!

    I think you got lucky with the 8.5. I'd keep it as is.

    Not a chance. Looks like a lower end 8.5 imo too. Typically cards that get a bump are leaning more towards 9 side. This could have even been an 8 and I wouldn't have questioned it.
