It seems like nothing but blather to me anyways.

Do you like the card for the grade, and what would you pay for it? Period!
I think we have to remember that not every collector or buyer is a hardcore collector. Some are here that are new or here for investment based etc.

Some of those folks will bid very much on claims and that's why they should be careful when making claims such as the above.

Also the reason these claims are typed in the first place is for the very reason that people will bid more. If these write ups had no effect on bidding patterns you wouldn't see them.
