No one that seems to be behind Carter has answered this question, which seems to be a strong possibility:

"For the detractors out there about Todd submitting the card to SGC. Did it dawn on you that when the seller stated that he knew GAI would sell for 20% of SGC or PSA, then why would he not try and submit his $1000 card to turn it into a $4000-$5000 card? Or maybe he did and it came back the same results as Todd got."

I thought I already answered that question? Speaking for myself, I wont do anymore crossovers in slabs, because I am like 0-30. I don't think the companies give their competitors a fair shake in that regard. And a high dollar card such as that one, I won't crack out either. Maybe the seller felt the same way....

I am definitely not behind the seller, Paul Sabatino, but he certainly is within his right to sell a GAI graded card whether or not he tried to cross it. Not sure he owes any disclosure, if he did attempt a cross over. Don't think he made any assertions as to guarantee the card would cross over either so I see nothing wrong with his having sold it knowing it would sell for less. Every person who sells GAI stuff knows it will sell for less.

It a STUPID question! You're asking us to speculate. Any more STUPID questions?

Edited to add: Maybe you should change your name to bowlingballgiverouterguy because the OP could definitley use some BALLS! He sits there and hides behind the eBay Buyer Protection because his card didn't cross and wants to whine. Boo Hoo! If it were any other auction or other method of purchase, he would be SOL and you, I and the OP know it.

There is no need whatever for these gratuitous personal insults.

Default what a thread~

I've held out posting this long but I'm going to say that I just hope this situation will somehow work out for both parties.
Good luck resolving this matter gentlemen.

I dont know Mr. David James but I am sure if we had a tribal council and voted he would be removed from this board. Really sir there is no reason to insult anyone. Especially Todd, or any other tenured member here. The collective knowledge on this board is 2nd to none and wether or not I or anyone else gets along we should really curb the ignorance. A few jabs here and there is fine but you have taken it a bit overboard. I have learned from personal experience that being a jerk gets you far less, and many members wont do business regardless of wether you have money or not. Yes I have been know to get fired up and say some ignorant stuff, and I assure you I regretted it later. If I am not mistaken this past years Net 54 dinner at the national was canceled due to threads like this derailing. I would love to attend one some day so lets strive to make it possible.

It was Todd that hurled the first personal insults by calling us "turds" and telling us to "kiss his ass." I was done with this thread, but there are some who obviously want to keep it going.

David I assure you that if this happened to you that you would be upset also. Amidst all the chaos the issues started. I hope that we all can bury the issues between us and just concentrate on what happened. It was a sour deal either way. Wether Todd is in the right or wrong it was just a bad deal. I am sure you can agree to this. If you were in his shoes would you have replied in a similar manner? I might have, and many others also.

There's also no need to keep this thread going as everybody has already said anything that could possibly be said. Until his STUPID question, there hadn't been a comment (related to the actual topic) posted in this thread in 24 hours. He could have let the issue die, but he choose to keep digging. I'll dig as deep as he wants to go.
