And with all due respect Jim, maybe some folks don't think it's time to move on. As long as the discourse remains civil I see no harm in continuing the discussion. Saco has done a lot and if I were them I would have done even more. Just one bidder with deep pockets could easily mean 5 figures more in the realized price. I think there are a few deep pocketed collectors in this thread too. One other thing, I would suggest Troy brush up on what is customary in our hobby. Several things stated, concerning norms, are obviously not correct. It's not extraordinary to get more than a few expert opinions on a valuable item. People can't just glue an SGC slab back together and think it's fine. Testing a fiber will not generally ruin an item. Because you make an exception on an item (if you do) doesn't mean you MUST do it on any other item. Personally, I don't think extreme measures have been taken but some measures certainly have been.
