JimB"grading killed his auctions"
I partially paid my way through grad school in the early 90's on his auctions. I would buy cards he descried as "mint" assuming they would get PSA 8s, which they did. Then I would flip them to PSA dealers for double what I paid. This was when he was actively campaigning against grading and everything in his auctions was raw. Those were the good ol' days with Rosen.
