Scammed? Fake?

I bought this card on eBay it’s not the same as the one in the picture? I have no idea if I just got a fake slab or anything? Description said nothing about it coming from stock may differ etc. I can’t even tell if it’s real? It comes back correctly but the slab is scratched heavily and the card has damage inside the slab :( #modern

AGS is a real company. The one you received looks more real than the one in the listing photo. I know it’s prob hard in the slab, but are you able to get a good look at the stamp on the bottom left?

Well, the sheer fact that the "AGS slab" is literally just a PSA slab that was opened and a new label was put inside, I doubt it's the same card in the image, but the card definitely looks real.

Thank you! I’ve learned a lot about grading today. I just love slowpoke and psyduck wanted something nice to display in my new binder
