Good question, and I certainly don't know the answer as this is still all fairly new to me, as it turns out.

How is this so? Not doubting you at all, I just don't understand, especially since it was sold through an A/H, how money was not exchanged when they list it as sold on their website??

Not sure I understand what you are saying?
Since joining this site back in January, I have done my best to try and understand the hobby, learn as much as I can, but I see I still have a long ways to go!
From reading about PSA and how they got started (Trimmed Wagner) to Maestro, battlefield on E-Bay and lots of other shenanigans in the hobby, I will say I am somewhat disheartened by what I am finding out on a regular, almost daily basis.
When I got back into this hobby (was never into like most on here to begin with) I was like a big kid again filled with excitement and enthusiasm to try and get caught back up but the more I find out about the hobby, (the ugly side of it I guess?) the less enthused I become.
