I literally have one in front of me, had another that I gave a friend, and measured them with a tape that goes down to 1/32". A sticker means nothing. They had a round of decks that had a 14.5WB sticker on them, but it was the same 8.5x14.38 shape that Krooked uses a lot. The AH Blue Eagle says 8.5x14.25 and it is very well documented on this site and well known that it measures closer to 8.38 and 14.18. Lots of decks are not precisely what they measure or they differ depending on where they are measured. Sometimes the stickers are more to identify a shape than to accurately describe measurements.
It is definitely 32 long or a hair over, which makes sense. The normal BBS 8.25, which Sci-Fi used to use up until they did the drop with Jerry's first pro model and that red/black X deck was that shape. That 8.25 is like 31.9 or so and this one makes up the .1 with the slightly longer and more tapered kicks. I had one of those to compare to the Sci-Fi and it was mostly a longer tail and the tiny bit longer WB the nose was really similar.
Both shapes are great, but if someone thinks they're going from say a Magenta 8.25 BBS generic and the Sci-Fi will be the same, its a bit different.
