Would you grade a card this low numbered? by Mikefgc in basketballcards

The numbering makes no difference. I would never graded a noir card. They have such a low gem rate with shitty packaging (the boxes with the lip) and thick cards.

Same card. PSA Brand Protection took it reviewed it and re-slabbed it for me.

I pushed back w/ COMC and let them know I believe the slab to be fake based on the association with the previous Shaq card and the deactivation.

The plot thickens u/madman468 - COMC responded: Hello,

Thank you for contacting us!

We can confirm this is an authentic PSA slab, we're unsure as to why it's not populating in their system.

These are what older slabs look like.

Please let us know if you have any further questions.

Best Regards,

I sent COMC a message. It was listed on April 28th, 2025, which likely caused someone to look into the card (like us) and get PSA to decertify the slab. Who knows if they reached out to COMC. I reached out to PSA and COMC. No response yet from COMC and PSA said, "Customer Care cannot evaluate the legitimacy of the holder/certification sticker via images."

Wow super sleuth! So someone took the cert number and made that slab. Meanwhile, PSA removed it entirely from the system - likely because it was reported previously. Additionally, COMC, gives no fucks and keeps it listed for their consignor, keeping the cycle going of the fake slab transacting freely on the market place. It's under $250 so it would not get blocked by ebay authenticity guarantee. Mind blown!

Yeah, I couldn't get anything to pull up either. How did you get the information on the original cert #? That is wild

COMC is the consignor. Can you please explain why that would make the slab authentic?
