The plot, it does thicken...
Cards were graded today, 9/28/23, BUT they sent me a message stating, "You have been refunded $15.00 for 1 card that SGC cannot grade."
No explanation as to why they cannot grade it was included, and they did not say which card is being sent straight to bed without plastic. Argh.
On the submission form, every card had the 'slab if authentic' box checked, so this is even more confusing.
Since this is a blind reveal thingy, I'm not going to investigate and discover which card it is, so it'll be a surprise to me (right up until the moment I see the back of it still in the semi-rigid holder I put it in, and begin shouting obscenities).
Whichever one I guess is the culprit, I assume will be wrong. The obvious choice is the miscut Bench rookie card, because it's the only one that isn't 'normal,' but that's too easy. The 1967 Laughlins are tricky, but I have plenty of them graded by SGC, so they are low on the suspect list. Perhaps the very problematic 1954 Bowman Mantle?
Could it be a 'minimum size not met' thing, maybe with the 1971 Ryan? But I thought they give it an 'A' and note it on the flip when that's the case. This is going to be an anxious few days waiting for Mr. Postman to (now) darken my doorway.
ETA: I did mention the 1971 Rose is a tad bit wider than normal, could there be something afoul there?
