How could a card graded gd/vg be overgraded by 2 or 3 grades? Thats not possible since vg itself is only 2 grades higher than poor? Last time i checked and this is by going that you said it could be fair,a fair card is graded a 20 and a gd/vg card would grade a 30. This card at worst would grade Fair and could pass for Good in some cases,thats not a reason to start a thread because you can find tons of card more than one grade overgraded by both dealers and grading companies

I have an Old Judge card with 2 small spots of paper loss on front,a small stain and a faded image as well as a couple small spots on the back and its graded a 5. I paid like it was a 5 because i needed the card. This card on the other hand has scans and wouldnt end for more than $40 on its best day as a real gd/vg. Yet someone who sees the scans can make their own judgement and decide what they want to pay and at worst case if theyre influenced by the grade alone and not their own thoughts they might spend $18 too much. BFD!
