It might have been sold unslabbed, but severely doubt it was sold unauthenticated/ungraded, so I don't think the cards sold for any significant discount because they were unslabbed. I am sure Bill Mastro and the buyer went to significant lengths to understand what was being bought and sold. Though I have no knowledge of Bill Mastro and Mastronet other than their auctions, I am confident he knows a few things about maximizing returns. If grading the cards would have maximized the return, he would have done it.

Also to echo an earlier comment, with money as cheap to borrow as it is these days, Mastronet has no need to sell this set at a discount for working capital.

Congratulations to whomever owns the set now. If money weren't an issue, I would rather have that Matty then the PSA 8 Wagner.
