Dealer was kind of a hard ass, not a jerk but not a nice guy either. Many years of experience. He may have overestimated the discount arising from the cards being hand cut, but I suspect he didn’t realize they were PCL’s. This was at least 20 years ago, and 1949 PCL’s were just as insanely rare and expensive as they are today. I’ve been a dealer and I’ve screwed up too (although not that badly). My attitude is that once it’s on the table, it’s for sale, and there’s a mistake, it’s on you.
