Anyway, it's at $15.6k right now with 9 days left. it's got a rip in it and it's wrapped in an ugly card condom- but pwcc slaps "certified high end" on it and they come running.

It's a pretty nice rip upper left. Here's same card sold at LOTG back in 3/29/15 for $15,600

I don't care for the baggies either. I've broken a few out, but still have some. I've only submitted cards to SGC for grading once and these Piedmont Art Stamps were in that group. I didn't ask for them to get baggied. I assume they did it because they are so thin.

1. People don’t like when thin items slide under the gasket and complain that SGC should fix the problem.

2. People like the way the SGC “gasket” frames the card and makes the colors “pop”.

3. SGC then puts thinner items in a transparent sleeve to prevent the cards from sliding under he gasket.

4. People don’t like the transparent sleeve, that keeps the card from sliding under the “gasket”.

5. SGC removes the sleeve and thin cards are then framed and their colors pop
Until the card slides under the gasket again.

6. Return to #1 and repeat as needed.

Good one.

Seems like a stretch to label it a "High End 1". Kinda like a beautiful toad. Opposite of an ugly bikini model.

You are correct in your assement a dimp is a spelling error of Dump and is also known as a shat! Lol

Read the back of the Certified High End certificate. It’s nice to have someone willing to tell me whether a card has visual appeal beyond the technical grade.
