CyMaybe it's me. But I don't follow why this is such a great thing for Scott.
Scott, you just placed a bid on this card just a few days ago. It was a card that you obviously wanted and the price was either OK since you bid that amount or it was a fantastic price if the winning price was much lower than your maximum bid.
Now SGC sees the card and deems it's not worthy of the grade and sends you the same amount of money that you paid for the card (basically). And this is a good thing for you?
If I bought that card at that price, I would prefer to have the card rather than the $42. That would be the reason why I bid on the card. If I would have prefered not to have the $42 instead of the card, I would have never bid on it and just drove to a baseball game or somewhere and spent my money elsewhere. To have someone offer you the same amount of money for the card would be the same as your not bidding on it at all. Wouldn't it?
Sincerely,
Cy
