How bad are the corners?

I really like the centering, but no way this should even be a 7 based on what I see in the corners. What does everyone else think?

    I would have guessed a six at best.

    I have gotting dispointed on how many of these cards are posted with poor grades to either the low side or upside.

    Has something gone wrong in the grading industry?

    That card does NOT belong in a 7 holder. That right edge is horrible, and if you like about 1/4 of the way down, there is a wrinkle! Maybe it was spooned before sent to grading and made it through and reappeared, but its there! STAY AWAY from that card.

    THAT is a HORRIBLE grading job! Although the card presents real nicely, NO WAY that should be graded higher than a SIX at best. All corners have touches with the bottom left being really bad!
    STAY HEALTHY!

    Certainly does appear to be overgraded. Seller does provide nice scans.

    Horrible corners. Bottom right corner looks awful!
