Seller is asking $40,000. If anyone is interested I'd be happy to help try and get a deal to work. However the card is in rough shape. Photo below.
 
Hey,

Great card. Unfortunately, like someone mentioned. Its too good to be true. There are plenty of these on EBay. Unfortunately, buyers are paying hundreds of dollars for these reprints, and taking the shot in the dark that they might hit pay dirt. I've yet to hear of a satisfied customer.

Now I don't know if this person is a friend of acquaintance of yours. But you need to ask the question. Why sell a card for $40,000, when you are potentially leaving literally hundreds of thousands of dollars on the table? Doesn't make any sense. And like his own description says, "Don't laugh, do some research" If that were the case, this card would have been sent into a reputable grading company long time ago. To be properly examined. Just my two cents. But hey, a sucker is born everyday, Good luck.

Cheers,
Eli:beer:
 
He is not my friend at all. And thanks for that Eli, and everyone else's input. The last thing I would want is to have someone I respect on here get taken by this. If it was real I just thought I'd post it. But thank you for the responses, and I have not continued to communicate with the gentleman on the matter
 
Ok, you know, did a bit or research. I think i have to side with the others. Only because I looked up this particular reprint (sovereign back) and right where there is some loss on the bottom of the back is where the rprints are marked "DDK REPRINT"

The one thing that does look kinda good about it is how off centre the back is..

Yup. That's pretty common.

Could be trimmed on the left side; bottom is clearly trimmed.
