How would you react to a personal attack (by SGC)?

Then, when you either resubmitted it to the same or different grading company because you disagreed with the assesment, I'm sure that you included a note saying, "By the way XYZ Grading Company said this was trimmed. I just wanted you to know that." That is the way it works, right?

Um, so the answer is no, you didn't tell Goodwin that REA passed on it, right? I got lost, cuz you used a lot of words...

Bought it, realized it wasn't brown, buried it for a good long while instead of showing it to a soul, tried to consign it taking advantage of the label, got called on it, tried to get sgc to buy it back? Just wondering, does that seems to fit the chronology better?

I just louped a bunch of cards, I didn't notice any changes in color. Whatever.

Did you make them big enough?

This is an interesting thread to say the least.

Awhile back I had bought a Rockenfeld T206, and when it arrived I noticed when comparing it side by side to a Hannifan Old Mill that I had, the Rockenfeld appeared almost brown.

At the time, I didn't belong to Net54, but had discovered Trae's site T206.org and had contacted him. Finally I was able to figure out how to send a photo of it (I am not very computer savvy),, and Trae confirmed to me that what I had was not a Brown Old Mill. The strange thing though, was that the photo I took made the back look "blacker" than it appears in person.

Anyhow,, I have since learned that (thanks to TedZ) I will not find a Rockenfeld with a Brown Back.................and also, my Rockenfeld is factory cut, and not hand cut.

So I guess it fits under the catagory of "faded black",,,,,,,,,,,,,but I'm just wondering if this is the same type of color that confused the Levy's?

I am working with a new computer now, so if I can figure out how to show some scans of these I will (probably don't need to, I know all of you Veteran T206 collectors have seen what I'm talking about?)
