But one correction: I use a percentage of NM to determine "book value" of vg t206s - as Jason has pointed out, and I agree with him, "book value" and "market value" differ (market is higher for t206s); however, where we differ in opinion is in what constitutes a "vg" card.

At the risk of heating up the debate, I think he has contradicted himself in that area - I am in agreement with SGC, PSA, SCBC and most board members as to what a "VG" card is - Jason feels that "VG" is what those afore-mentioned sources would call "EX" (or at least very close to it). He has also said that he feels GAI grades accurately, which is where the contradiction comes in - one of Jason's "VG"s would be "EXMT" in a GAI holder. It doesn't matter to me - if I ever buy a card from Jason I'll ask for a clear scan and make a decision from that...and if I ever sell a card to Jason I will provide him with very clear scans, as I have in the past, so he shouldn't give a flip how I grade them.
