I'm certain there is a cottage industry of people who do nothing more than submit hundreds of 9's with the hope of getting back a few 10's. Some probably make a high five-figure, or even a six-figure income doing nothing more than looking for nice 9's to resubmit. Like I said, the TPG's are minting money. And where else can you buy something for $400, resubmit it, and if it bumps to a 10 get back a commodity worth 30K? The only thing I can find even remotely comparable is buying a lottery ticket, and hitting a jackpot.
