I just don't see that. To me the picture looks a little big.

Yeah, the market really has dropped that much on some cards. I can’t say that those results are not believable.

Looking at other examples I'm probably just being paranoid, but that was my first impression.

It could be trimmed, but I wouldn't say necessarily. The Mays in particular has extremely narrow borders to begin with in comparison to the rest of the set.

Mays borders are fine, the card is beautiful, to me it’s a strong Nrmt-Mint properly graded 8. It’s the second sale that was not reported that was the thrust of my post.

[parkplace33]

I don’t believe those 53 Mays prices for a second. And I am curious what an 8 would sell for now (if one comes out).

[Exhibitman]

It is absolutely fraud to knowingly report a fake sale and then tout it in an effort to flip the card. Textbook fraudulent concealment of a material fact.

As for consignors faking sales, I guess it could happen but does anyone know it happened?

Jesus christ, some of the largest amount of fruads are perpetrated by church patrons ON their own church people.. ask any investigator. As an aside, anytime an ebay auction has "god bless" it usually a scam!

You obviously don't know any Mormons or Jehovah's Witnesses. You can't lump them in with your average church goer.

But yes, in general, I otherwise agree with you.

I don't think any one faith has a higher propensity to virtue, or to lack thereof. Human nature is what it is, independent of specific faiths, IMO.

LOL, I know several and they are no better or worse than anyone else.

Sorry, I'm an atheist, but I'm calling BS on you "knowing several" if you honestly believe that.

Appreciate the vote of confidence from Travis for my fellow believers. We certainly strive for perfection, and hold ourselves to high standards.

But I would be more focused on your personal experiences with that fellow rather than their faith. From what you mentioned earlier, he has proven himself to be a man of integrity, even when the opportunity arose to take advantage of a situation.

As others have mentioned, as a member of that faith, we are as mortal and fallible as most, with our fair share of failure.

FWIW, PWCC was at the epicenter of the blatant, shameless market manipulation in 2016 or thereabouts. It wasn't just them, to be clear.

Anyone know any the Mantle SGC 7 cert number changed?

Maybe someone broke it out and tried to bump it?

The card is simply amazing with so many out there but the demand seems to be endless

that's the reason for my follow up post. I went and looked at some examples and noticed the thinner than normal borders even on 1's and 2's
