You can have a great eye and try to sell a card but it’s always going to get more money inside that slab.
As a side note for more anecdotal “proof”, one of our submitters cracked three 1984 Donruss Mattinglys all PSA 9. He believed they could come back as Gem 10s. They came back as 7, 7 and 8.

Thank you, so it is just greed.
And your story of the resubmitted cards is further proof that the opinion sellers don't really know what the fuck they are doing.
I don't know what 1984 Mattinglys go for in a 7 slab, but I will admit that I hope it's less than 2 X submission costs...
