FS: N162 Kelly SGC 30/2/A

[luciobar1980]

See, this is what is maddening about this and still confuses me. I got a T3 Tris Speaker graded which came back Auth. It had pinholes which had a tiny bit of blue color within and around the holes. I called and they told me this was the only reason that it received an A. It was not trimmed or anything else. Now tell me, who would try to cover up a pinhole with blue paint? To me it's very likely this was pinned up on a wall with blue paint. So why the A??

And to follow up , make this relevant to this post. Why would this Kelly come back Auth? The glue is not an attempt to improve the card.

maybe a way to cover up the original mistake? i was upset and will give them a call to figure out why the grade. if it's trimmed then so be it, if it's the glue then so be it. i think they should give you a comment of why any card doesnt number grade.
