Does that mean that because its not industry standard it is OK? Of course not.

Actually you can. Thats actually a valid legal defense. It doesnt mean they win but it shows its far from scam behavior. Experts can be hired to argue those points for both ways. People lose tons of money and time pursuing cases in which maybe in 10 years they could of been right. Tell them dont worry it will take time for there to be a new standard even though they have now lost everything.
Again, when you buy anything at an auction house, do you expect them to disclose if a card was soaked prior to submission? You will say no.
Do you expect an auction house to disclose if a card is micro wrinkled that you may not be able to see from a photo? You will say yes.
You also didnt comment that its common practice to do due dillgence on a 50k card. A 5 minute google search would of resolved that. I dont buy a used card at a dealership and rely on the dealer to tell me everything about the car. There is an industry standard.
As an analogy, I may have caused your auto accident, but if you are only injured because you did not wear a seatbelt, you are to blame.
