Heritage sold it as a SGC 30 back in May 2016 for 5975.00
Then it went under the water to get cleaned and got submitted to PSA for grading.
PWCC sold it as a PSA 2 back in November 2016 for 5677.88.

How do you know it was only cleaned by water? Were you the one who cleaned it or do you know who did it? How do you know chemicals weren't used, but can't be detected? Can you provide a link to where SGC and PSA have said it is OK to clean cards with water? If this is the industry standard, why was the cleaning not disclosed when the card was sold? Isn't the answer to the last question that it is not the industry standard and there are a lot of people opposed to any alteration of cards including soaking?
