Hi Larry,

I apologize for implying that you knew about this issue before you listed the card. What you did is understandable-- not knowing there might be a question about what set it came from, you went by the grading company's authority. Doing that made sense with the info you had at the time, and I didn't mean to imply otherwise.

However, now you have more info. If it were my auction and this controversy had come up too late to cancel it, I believe the ethical thing to do would be to write to the high bidder, tell him about this thread, and allow him to opt out of the auction without a penalty. If he still wanted the card after full disclosure, then I would feel I was off the hook with my seller's integrity intact.

Hope that helps--

Cheers,
Tim
