Insane Babe Ruth card on Ebay

I like the Python-esque -Cards not appearing in this auction- photo.

Hot damn that’s some card!!! Awesome to just find in a box! It’s gonna sell for close to 40 grand.

Weird time to end a high dollar auction though.

I’ve got a couple of questions:

1.) Which Grading Company will inspect the card to guarantee its meets the EBay Authenticity Guarantee? What happens if it’s reviewed by CSG under the EBay Authenticity Guarantee and you have PSA grade it on your behalf and it’s found to not be authentic?

2.) The buyer takes a risk the card would only grade as an “A” when it’s submitted to the TPG. I don’t know if the value of the card in say a PSA “A” would justify how much the card will, more than likely bring in the auction but based on its rarity it may be worth much more.

It’s definitely a very cool and very rare card. It will be interesting to see what it sells for in the auction.

Stupid question, but sometimes you just gotta ask. Why didn't the seller have it authenticated/graded first before listing it ?

Look at the seller, they sell books out of a house. The listing says "Old Babe Ruth card". I don't think they had any idea of the value of what they had, I bet they're smiling now though.
