I gather from the above that since both auctions closed on a Saturday and the PSA registry was not a factor, 
that the reason was due to someone buying the card, not the slab. So that a card with minor paper loss and a light crease (on the top) still presented better (and got the higher price), then a similarly graded example (on the bottom) with no other description provided.
