Steve,
I wondered the same thing, I also find it funny. Put that card at risk by cleaning or whatever was done for a 2-5k bump at best....and if it went wrong..a loss of 32k. Seems silly to me...others may feel different. Last edited by wonkaticket; 03-02-2011 at 10:13 PM. |

$625. per page 6 of their auction catalog.

If the seller did just slip it in as a regular hof t206 and didn't insure properly, what would've happened if the grader realized what was going on and stole the card ? Or the whole package ? What recourse would the submitter have if not properly insured or submitted ? How could they sleep while the card was away ?

Thanks, Glyn -- I completely missed that. I didn't get the catalog, but I should have easily seen it on their site...

Just making up some numbers, 2.5% things go wrong - lose 15k 10% things go wrong, get altered grade, even upon resubmit - lose 10k 20% nothing changes, grade remains the same - break even 45% things go okay, get 2.5 grade - make 5k 22.5% everything goes better than expected, get grade of PSA 3 - make 30k That's expecting to make 7.5k on 32k...which isn't a bad return...and is bumped up a lot if you choose to fool yourself into believing that the downside can't possibly occur... It's an interesting choice to admit to cleaning the card (although it is nice that they did that)... Steve |

Only did that online...not in the catalog. FWIW |

wonka's altered plank looks 1000x better than this altered one...and it costed him only half.
