Barry,

I have had this problem numerous times as well and simply adjust my purchasing accord to the person I am buying from knowing full well many people do not subscribe to the current grading system in describing their cards. "Old timers" who have not relied or studied the grading system are usually most susceptible to discrepancies. Either way it stinks feeling like you got a VGEX card and it comes back a 2.

Its just the nature of the current beast, some do it out of ignorance, others intentionally mislead, I just do my best to learn the seller and adjust.

I am not sure there is any way to hold someone accountable unless it is specifically guaranteed a certain grade; and there is no way to get all buyers and sellers on the same page.
