After reading a lot of good comments, there is a strong/good reason to not allow comps:
Comp was based on a card of the same grade. However, as indicated in other threads, an 8 isn't an 8 isn't an 8. The comps used may be for stellar examples of the card while the card being sold may be one of those 8-ish cards that should probably be a 6 or 7. Maybe the centering on the comps were perfect which led to a higher overall sale price. Even if the comp was for a 4, there are nice 4s and some ugly 4s (and we've all seen that before).
Comp was based on a different time frame when the irrational exuberance was in abundance.
Not my call.
