One thing I never understood about CU was the geographical logistics. Spence is in PA, CU is in California and Grad is in Chicago(?). Unless the turnaround is damn slow, I don't understand how a card is judged authentic by Spence and graded by a grader (though obviously it's done). Perhaps there is a lot of travelling and meeting at mutual shows. Perhaps Steve Grad is feverously studying the grading charts in a Beckett monthly as we speak.

I once asked Spence about the logistics of examining stuff for a MastroNet auction-- but it's just name dropping (impressed?), as I can't remember what was his answer.
