Exactly why I made sure to say I'm not an attorney, nor have I ever seen one of their contracts. LOL Purely speculating and giving them the benefit of the doubt to have put language or clauses in their agreements/contracts that gives them the ultimate authority when it comes to something like determining what something is worth in regard to upcharges for grading services. Also still think that there's not going to be enough of a difference in an upcharge for any disputed grading fee to make someone want to risk the potential legal fees it could cost to take anyone to court.

Also, I have yet to hear of a single legal case being brought where someone has taken them to court over their grading guarantees, let alone win a case for such against them. And a case like that would most likely be for way more money than a dispute about a grading fee upcharge would ever be. So again, in all the decades they've been in business now, if no one as of yet has taken them to court for the latter, I doubt anyone is going to want to really risk wanting to go against them for the former.
