Troubling Auction Purchase
Posted By: warshawlaw
I think it all depends on your eye. I had several nasty fights with hobby veterans who sold the ex as near mint before slabbing. I find that my grading eye is very close to what SGC uses. I used to pick up many cards in 8-9 caliber--postwar. T and E and N and D and etc. No way. They did not exist. Some undoubtedly surfaced as the hobby matured. I've seen enough prewar finds and been on hand for enough of them, however, to know that ex or maybe ex-mt is the best you can hope for from them. No way to I believe that the 8s out there are nearly all original.
