Kind of a blurry picture of this 1933 Babe Ruth #144 PSA 7. I know this is one that has been part of the Craigslist scams. Thoughts?

    Check out the FB the seller has rcd as a buyer.

    It's another speed-built account.

    Seller also recently listed a 33 goudey ruth psa 7 and a 53 topps mantle psa 8, both "ended early". Sometimes it's bad to buy outside of ebay, I think a couple people are going to learn that lesson.

    Looks frosty around the edges too... probably smells like tea.

    Why would it smell like tea?

    Fake stains on the back maybe? I don't know counterfeit cards as well as most, but I thought I heard of that method before, to make it look aged.

    Flip looked bad when I saw the listing. The Flip Cert looks to be 9 digits long, too.
