Unless your scanner has specks in those very specific areas, I see white on 3 corners. I know there are other criteria on which cards are graded, but on 86 Fleers, those red corners are unforgiving. At least when I sub.
The OP is offering the card at a fair price. I was just commenting on what I consider a pretty generous grade.
I think its a decent looking PSA 8 in my opinion, corners look sharp, top corner might have a touch, but aside from centering, is a very fair PSA 8. Good Luck, You will have no problem selling it at the price you have listed.
I have a PSA set of 86/87 with about 30% in 8 and 70% in 9. Its one of the few basketball sets that I feel I know pretty well. I don't see any reason that this one wouldn't be an 8. I understand the earlier comment about seeing white on 3 corners, but ALL corners still look to have completely sharp edges. I have no problems with those corners.
I would like to see a picture of the back of the card though as centering on the reverse of the 86/87's is a common detractor.
My daughter was diagnosed with type 1 diabetes at the age of 2 (2003). My son was diagnosed with Type 1 when he was 17 on December 31, 2009. We were stunned that another child of ours had been diagnosed. Please, if you don't have a favorite charity, consider giving to the JDRF (Juvenile Diabetes Research Foundation)

Really?...I think that Jordan meets 8 criteria. Of course, I dont submit alot. I like it though.

Can you explain why you think this card is not worthy of an 8? I would be very curious to know.
Thanks
