Who knows. Maybe that’s why the Clemente Card from January sold for even more when it was relisted? I did not post about it here, but I did post about it on a FB group. One guy (in that group) had the nerve to poke at me for even questioning the card. Basically saying “a 7 is a 7”. He then went on to tell the group how his uncle could fill in pinholes and get them past PSA.

Basically, here is where I am at: It’s taken me 40 years to finally commit to completing my favorite set. I need these two cards. I may end up buying them raw and just moving on with life.

Again: The only reason for this post was to give as many people as possible a heads up about the current relisted Jackie Robinson card. I have not made any accusations. I have not encouraged anyone to avoid the auction. I’m just providing information, because I have held the card in my hands and I know that it has a condition issues Inconsistent with a 7 grade.
