You said in your video the Speaker would be a "1" or Authentic because of the pin holes. Are you disappointed in the grade or the fact they encased it, because a screwdriver will solve the case real fast.

On the Wilson, if it came back a "5" would you still be mad? If you think it's high just crack and resubmit it.

The '33 Hack Wilson is notoriously off centered and this one is near perfect...JUST ENJOY IT!!

Well, if you read it carefully they say it would come back a 1, and that they stand behind it behind authentic, not that it would come back authentic. But that's not a big deal. I'm more just confused WHY this came back as A and not a 1, and always have been confused about this.

Does the A mean they think it is altered as in Trimmed/Recolored or would the pinholes themselves be considered an Alteration??

I will! It's a beautiful card, no matter the technical grade.

You have to remember Probstein, and whoever else is in the business of making money.
Most people talk up/describe things in their favor when they are selling automobiles, their house, atvs, dirt bikes, boats just to name a few.

I have never dealt with Probstein and likely never will based on what I have read here about him, but that is me.

With that being said, I agree, your 4 looks like it was graded tough.
I have never sent any of my cards in to get graded, and now, seeing the grades you received, I am even less likely to do that now?

Lucio,

I assume you already know this, but just in case.....all of the major Ebay and auction sellers submit very large quantities of cards for grading.

If a card comes back graded lower than what they believe it should be, the card will likely get cracked and sold raw.

You have some great looking cards!
