Is "we will be sure to take action if it is deemed necessary" a circular statement/tautology? Greg M., what say you?

And with no guarantee in place, not sure what action they'd need to take in order to get the current owner to return it to be placed in an AUTH ALTERED slab without getting paid back.

If SGC does realize there is something "wrong" with the card based on all of the evidence provided, what is their next step? What's the difference in price between a 6 and 8.5? My guess it has to be a huge difference in price.

I wonder if TPGs have insurance for something like this. I would have to believe no insurance company would be so blind to the possible fraud that could result in payouts.

Do any of the TPGs provide a limited indemnity against such huge possible payouts? Or do the TPGs offer any type of protection for the hobbyist?

Hey, I see you lost about $100K on that, we'll give you lifetime free submissions.

Anybody want to guess on the response? It would be nice for them to examine all the evidence and do the right thing, but think about the potential backlash for doing the right thing.

Edited to add - oh crap, that's the difference between 8.5 and A... OMG

SGC has no guarantee.

I'll leave it up to the lawyers of the board as to whether they can actually fully disclaim liability in this fashion.

But there was one in place when they graded it years ago.

It's more of tautology; as it is designed to say nothing but the conclusion isn't itself a premise. Empty statement constructed in such a way that it works whether the components are true or false - they either will or will not do something based on if they think they should or should not.

In other words, utter BS.

If I were more cynical I would think this response from SGC was disingenuous from the get go and they knew exactly where this card came from.

Well it is SGCPete and all of his messages come off that way...to me anyway. Either way, SGCPete knows who they slabbed the card for. It is likely someone whose material they see very often.

Not that they were going to do anything about it but now for sure Dave is not buying it back. Zero obligation since Team Nat decided they wanted the card in their slab.

Agreed. It is a small universe of people who would have hacked up that card.
