Troy, this discussion was started because the item was
rejected by a "big sports auction house".
fyi, pretty much everybody in the hobby, big money or small, has been burned at some point. You have entered a very skeptical market. The fact that the consignor was willing do anything, except a binder test is a red flag period. To say that "big sports auctions" don't get the same treatment is ridiculous. Just check the recent thread about Mile High, and how the item was instantly removed.
You're right though, someone will pay big money for this item and possibly do no more testing. Maybe someone that doesn't know any better.
