If you pull up the full description, it says it’s a reprint. Which changes the “huh” from being “why is it so cheap” to “why is it so expensive?”

A reprint indeed and they slabbed it to look like it was graded to a non expert eye.
Note the seller has only 5 feedback and half of the items he's selling are two Honus Wagner reprints and Beatles ACEO cards. Do I see a pattern or a modus operandi?

I made an offer of $5 for it, but it was automatically declined. Wonder where the auto-decline value cap is?

There is a facebook page for an Anvil Card Co. (anvilcard) that actually makes these reprint cards and hand-wears them to look old an d vintage. This particular card looks like it may have been part of a giveaway back in May. Pretty interesting.
Edit: This one is graded better than the one in the giveaway but the slab is identical. I kinda like the look of it to be honest.

I looked for "reprint" before posting, but didn't find it until looking a second time. The lack of any grading company name on the slab threw me off too.

Someday my cards may double in value and then be worth half of what I paid for them.

I wouldn't pay anywhere near $125, but it is a cool looking piece for a decoration.

They did a good job with the aging of it. Looks really cool. I'd buy it if it was in a $1 bin but wouldn't even think of paying that kind of price for it.
