To me all this reinforces the old adage of buy the card not the holder. The thousands that can be saved by purchasing the 3.5 vs the 7 in incredibe.
This also raises another thought I had. One's opinion is influenced by what side of the coin you're on. As a submitter, I'd be frustrated and upset at the 3.5 grade. As a buyer, I'd be delighted at the 3.5 grade. I can relate to both sentiments. I guess I'm guilty of wanting my cake and eating it too. Edited to add. BEAUTIFUL card A.J. And I understand your bewilderment. Last edited by DeanH3; 10-20-2016 at 01:48 PM.

yes plan to resubmit at a later date and will crack this time. Don't think a straight review in holder will get the job done. Card was originally in a SGC 60 holder and I think they were about right.

Here's a much more high quality scan. Maybe that isn't a wrinkle or crease, but it sure looks like a scratch at a minimum to me. Hopefully this gives us a better understanding of why this card obtained this grade.

I've looked with loop no scratches or creases. That Goldin scan was blown out and color saturated.
We'll see what happens on the re-do. It's a travesty outside of a least a 5 holder

True dat but we all play the game in our own way
The increase in "perceived" value with a justifiable bump more than makes up for the cost of resubmitting. At the end of the day I factored the cost of this happening into the final purchase price and still came out on top.
