    IF it grades, I think a PSA 5.5....but to me, I dont think it will slab. I think it will get a MINSIZREQ or trimmed.

    If it's not altered, and comes back a 5 or better. I say very good deal!

    Here is your answer since no one seems to have put it directly.

    If it comes back a 5 you had a fairly decent purchase price, if it comes back any lower you will slightly lose money at a 4 including the 10~ for grading.

    << <i>psa 2 or 3...look at the reverse bottom edge and paper loss or indentations...no way this is a 5 and likely not a 4...seller did very well >>

    A couple areas on the bottom can be seen when inspecting the back of the card. Bubbled out like it had some moisture there at one time.

    I say possibly trimmed because that bottom edge appears to be terribly wavey

    Good Deal? I would have to say it depends. Are you happy with the card?

    If so, then yes.

    If you bought it expecting a certain grade, then it's questionable until it's graded.

    It's a nice looking card. I'd expect it to grade 4 or 4.5

    The seller is a POS, and I would not complete the sale if I were you.

    Overall where this thread has gone I'm sure you understand the purchase.

    I do have to say, you need to define good deal.

    "Good Deal? I would have to say it depends. Are you happy with the card?"

    That is extremely true, if you bought it looking to make a few bucks by grading and flipping obviously you will probably be disappointed.
