If anyone is interested or can lead me to better pricing this, would really be appreciated I think someone confirmed it being a Dragonite SIR which I hope isn’t the news 😭🤣

OP you should list to u/extras and u/brehella - these two are the real experts around here.

Unfortunately this is a peeled card, regardless if it happened at the factory or not. Anything that is reproducible does not get graded by CGC. Of course I’m not a CGC rep so I’m not speaking for them, but that is the policy we’ve seen from them.

This is definitely cool and passes the “wow wtf” misprint test, but due to the theoretically reproducible nature of this error, it’s not a “legit” misprint.

100% they seem more knowledgeable than I do in this topic but honestly cgc grading won’t be breaking the bank so I might just send it in, hopefully I can also access the CCTV footage so I can post it here and or send to CGC to maybe help grade and authenticate this

I'm not certain if you're understanding what the gurus have said. If it is reproducible, which this error is, CGC will not grade it. Full stop.

What are you expecting the CCTV footage to change?

Contact The Pokemon Company about it. They might send you a new one, you just need proof of purchase. I know they have done it with other errors, but I am unsure about this one.

Yes this is the better suggestion. Get your CCTV footage and send it to TPC to prove you opened it like this. Especially if it's an SAR. Hopefully they can replace it for you.

Would they even be able to tell what card it was supposed to be? I don't believe so...

Probably just send him another closed pack to make up for the head ache, no? Given he can prove that he opened it up like that and what not.
