Me too, Andrew
I meant to post this in the main forum, where it presumably would get more response. Oh well.
The more puzzling question for me is the motivation behind resubmitting the card. It was an SGC 60 until it sold on ebay just last month--July 5th to be exact. Now it's in Goodwin's auction as an SGC 20. I'm not implying anything sinister by anyone--just observing what seems very odd. After winning the card on ebay July 5, someone likely waited 3-5 days for it to arrive. He then cracked it out or sent it in on what would likely be an accelerated basis for a new grade, had it graded and returned, was apparently unhappy and then consigned to Goodwin, all in the space of little more than a month. It's weird to even resubmit the card. Cards with any kind of stamping stand a good chance of being downgraded severely (even if unfairly). Hoping for a bump in grade seems farfetched. Moreover, if there are any set collectors at all for this issue, they are not going to be so picky about condition so as to pass on an SGC 60 or pay exceptionally more for a card one grade higher. There simply is no active competition that would make it worth the risk of resubmission. Strange, IMO.

Looks to be the same card to me. It is weird why someone would crack and resubmit that card with a stamp on it.
I did get a Joe DiMaggio cheap one time because of the same thing. Guy paid top $ for a SGC card and cracked to get that magic PSA cash. PSA gave it a MC qualifier and I got it for about half of what they paid.
