David will have to explain his initial statement that Dean responds to emails at the smgsmg1968 account.
Rob was pretty adamant (and convincing) that Dean's account is hobbyguynj and smgsmg1968 is someone else. (Rob knows who it is, and used his first name in emailing me.)
The Cardtarget explanation is believable, at least to me. Dean used to own the C56 Moran card AND the M116 Clarke card. Dean sent both in to PSA, hence they are on the same submission. Dean subsequently sold Moran to smgsmg1968 in a private sale. He also sold the Clarke on Ebay.
At a later date, smgsmg1968 decided to sell the Moran. It was less than Dean had sold it for, so he was a bidder to buy it back. He did not win this card, but they have had other deals together, both on and off Ebay, and therefore there is some feedback between them.
I'm still in the camp that doesn't see this reflecting on REA, but I realize that others can be more skeptical. What a mess for a small issue.
