Why grade a card missing a HUGE chunk?

Well Tom, if you offer your $0.02 for the card, you just might get it.

That is ridiculous, grading a common card w a huge piece out of it. Grading is the bane of the hobby, when it comes to "commons".

Yes, I'm hoping the hobby can overcome this.

Believe it or not any graded T206 was selling for at least $20-$30 at shows about 4 years ago. They were really really hot until I think the average guy realized how easy many of the cards in that set are to get if you dont care about condition.
