Default How did this get a 4?

Can anyone explain what qualifies this card as VG-EX?






Here is another 4 that just recently sold... Is there really this much disparity in ONE single grade?

That's easy...just blindfold yourself and push the "4" button and BOOM!...you have a 4. At least that's what PSA did here...

They were grading the card next to a golf course and someone yelled "Fore"?

It is based on the 100 scale. Actually it looks to be undergraded...looks like a 12 or possibly 13 in my opinion.

Bet the price is that of a 7.

Statistically speaking, that "4" in the OP is an outlier, to be sure

No offense to Levi at 707. I have dealt with him several times and personally find him to be an honest and upright guy.

Best Regards,

Eric

Default Spelling counts

I think this card got a "4" because of the impeccable spelling.
Minny-apple-less has always been challenging.

Not many other explanations make sense to me.

(I know if I sent it in, I'd get a "2")
