The one thing missing from this story is why SGC demanded a release before sending the card back to its owner. Even when the owner is dissatisfied with the grade, standard procedure is to send the card back to the owner. After all, it is his card. From SGC's statement, it looks like the owner must have been alleging that SGC damaged the card. But even so, I doubt that gave SGC the right to hold a card hostage while demanding a release. It's his property, and if he has some crazy theory that SGC damaged it, he can try to prove it in court. The fact that he sent it back to SGC for a second look should not give SGC the right to hold his card hostage until he gives up his legal claims.
