They'll probably try. Never underestimate a greedy opportunist and their disregard for the way things are supposed to work.

How much can you sell a 3 month wait $100 grading for, when I can just pay the $150 and get my cards back in 4 weeks?

I wasn't trying to imply they were intelligent...or that any of this would work.

I merely said they'll probably try. Bear in mind, people were going bat-$#!T crazy at Target & Wal-Mart to buy items they could flip for a $20 profit.

I have two subs that I sent there early last year, I am just happy that they are not opening too quickly or cheaply because I would like those cards back. Whomever in management that reacted WAY to slowly last year are the ones to blame for the mess.

Nat Turner said the reason they didn't is because they didn't want the bad publicity of buying the company and immediately raising prices or shutting down. So they got a mess instead. He also said they had a single day where they received 600,000 cards to grade. 600,000. One day.

Yeah, in that same interview, he said they were averaging something like 100,000 cards a day before the shutdown - while being able to grade 40,000. So they were losing ground every single day.
