I just saw this on Junk Wax Investor's Youtube channel, and he was commenting on what a great deal it was. I looked it up to get a better look and both cards seem either fake or are in fake slabs. The Finest doesn't shine like a refractor (though 1993 refractors aren't as shiny as in later sets), but the 1984 has way too many issues to actually be a PSA 10. It's way off center on both front and back, and it has noticeable edge and corner issues on the back.

The seller claims he hid the PSA certification numbers for security, which is a huge red flag. Why would a legitimate seller not want a buyer to be able to verify a certification? Plus, the font on the PSA labels just doesn't look right.

Some knuckleads take PSA certs off of eBay listings and add the cards to their registry. Then it takes weeks, if not months, for the eventual buyer to be able to move the card into their set. I think that’s a common reason why some sellers block the cert #.

its always only taken me a day and a half to have PSA remove the cert to allow me to add a card to my registry.
