I love these little baseball card pissing matches so I'll fuel the fire. TPG grades as somehow adding value or validating the value of a card will eventually land where it belongs. None of them have measures in place to be a consistent way of determining a cards condition. It is one of the best examples of human error and worst examples of control I have ever seen. "Flipping" and an "84" vs a "6.5"......... Pretty funny stuff.
Edited to add that it's a shame this very cool discovery of cards that are extremely presentable is overshadowed by grading. Would have been great had they been sold just as they were found. I would have actually bid and they would have sold for their value, not the plastic slip.
