Is this card really a PSA8??? The back corners look terrible. I am not a grading expert, but I don't see how this card gets better than a 7. What do you think..

Based on modern era 8s its overgraded. Compared to other 8s from that set not so much.

I take issue with the fact that the corners have been squared up and flattened out. You can usually tell this was done by the amount of wear versus squareness of the corners. Cards with that much corner wear typically don't have their corners come to perfect 90 degree angles.

I don't think this means the card is altered just been smoothed over and if it hadn't been done I do agree the card would have graded a 7.

I agree on being overgraded. Belongs in a 7 holder, but I've seen worse 8's.

looks like an 8 to me, R319's are thick stocked, and that card is sharp. The price is high though....

Card is sharp but was "made" that way. Based on the back scan those corners had some help getting square.

EX/MNT in my opinion, however I don't have the card in hand and am going by a scan.

The seller btw is top notch, if you are interested in this card email him, he will be honest with you.
