Can this CJ really be Mint?

SGC's grading is similar to PSA for a mint 9. This is a beautiful card, and based on SGC's definition ( and PSA even though the card is SGC ) the card appears to meet the criteria. I am curious what you would grade the card at if you feel the card is over graded and got a " break ".

How about the under bidder? At 42% but has over 1000 bids? As for the card, I'm ok with the 96. That is one heck of a card even with minor defect.

We'll agree to disagree. The card meets more of the criteria for an SGC 96, than it does for an SGC 88 or " at best ". I suggest you review the SGC Grading Scale for their grading standards to better your understanding. If this were your card, you would be screaming mad if it graded an 88 " at best ". The card is spot on for the grade.

You're right, probably should have received a 98....

Come on guys...The bottom line is that if this card was a PSA 9, all Hell would be breaking loose and you know it. "What the Hell where they thinking?" "How did this get a 9?" "PSA is a joke". By the way, here's the irony, the card is being sold by Rick Probstein! Remember those past threads and accusations??
