"The PSA 8.5 was a $2,200 card. A PSA 9 in that card is a $10,000-$15,000 card" then you really are out of touch Bobby.
I think you missed the point of my post. I DO understand why he did it! He wanted to turn $2,200 into $15,000. Who wouldn't want to do that!! The card should have never been cracked out to begin with, unless their was a GUARANTEE that it would have gotten a '9'. Hell, once the card is cracked out, there is no guarantee he would have gotten it back into the same '8.5' holder that it was in. My point is this, if you play the stock market, and get burned, you have noone to blame but yourself. Matt could/should have done the review WITHOUT cracking the card out. That being said, I blame Joe Orlando for putting it in Matt's head that is was cool to crack the card out in hopes of getting a 1/2 point bump. If it wasn't the lure of $10,000 profit, Matt would have never did it.
