O'Hara & Demmit St. L

Hey Bobby, I'm in a big bunch of agreement with you.

Demmitt appears trimmed to me. O'Hara does too, to a lesser extent. And Beckett shouldn't be grading and selling both. So Amen, brother Bobby!


I do think that if I have an old T205 I'm about to sell, I could put it on eBay and proclaim that it is about VG. I've then graded a card that I own, and that I plan to sell. And I think that's ok...

The distinction is that what we look for from a 3rd party professional grade is multi-fold, and one of those things is that they'll be a 3rd party. It is crap for them to grade it then sell it. If they're going to be doing 3rd party grading they should not be buying and selling. It's such an obvious screwup that it makes me wonder when PSA will do it, or when everyone who collects slabbed cards will start expecting to get their cards from the slabbers, or when folks will back off on collecting slabbed cards.
