Now that’s a damn shame.

The card is incredible and deserved to be crossed. Not sure why anyone would call it a rigged game when that’s clearly the case in this instance. To me because the buyer saw the value and opportunity to cross it makes him a smart business person and nothing more sinister than that.

I know who bought it, do you?

What’s the difference who bought it?

I’m not sure who bought it would matter if the card is worthy on its own merit?

Many high profile cards can go either way. So in that sense, yes. Politics, or whatever you want to call it, can play a role.

I’m no expert and I don’t have 1.7 million but I think anyone with reasonable eyesight can see the card is extraordinary and would highly likely cross to PSA.

Only in that a buyer with inside connections (and we both know some buyers have those) likely would have used them to ask if the card would, or was likely to, cross. That's how this industry has always worked to some extent, just how it is.
