This comment interests me. I have a very significant card that unfortunately is sitting in a GAI 7 holder. Figuring out how to deal with re-grading has been a major headache. If I consigned it with an auction house, they'd get it graded for me? I know it would be at my expense. I didn't know this was common practice (never consigned before). Follow-up question... can you guys give me an auction house recommendation? I don't know where to start with this.

Very common practice. Which auction house makes the most sense is heavily dependent on the card, sport, age, and expect dollar value. Goldin, Heritage, and REA are great for very high end ($25,000 or more). Others are great between $5-25K, others are great below that level. Some auction houses even let you bid on your card or set "hidden reserves", or even bid on your cards for you.
