He hates VCP ,Beckett, and SMR but asks you to trust the third party grading company and not show a back scan, makes sense to me. I talked to him for awhile at the National and he seemed like an ok guy. When I saw his Mellow Mint Bender I let him know I was the underbidder on it and he had no qualms letting me know it was his card and he had submitted it and wasn't gonna let it go for under $2500 as it 'wasn't good for the hobby' and also wasn't happy he 'lost' money on it getting it back and then said I could have it for $2600. I politely said since I was underbidder at $1800 in a major auction house I wasn't gonna go any higher and was a little surprised at how open he was about the whole situation and at that point didn't want the card at any price. To each his own I guess........
