Jeff - that's a great question for debate. I'll suggest that even knowing it was previously a 5, they have no obligation to disclose that. The card is now a 6 and you're correctly bidding on a 6. I know it does matter to some, but why does it matter that it was previously a 5? Does it mean that the 6 is more likely a generous grade? Maybe it means the 5 was wrongly assigned in the first place. Regardless you should be bidding on the card.
(I didn't mean to implore you to bid, rather the emphasis was on bidding on the card and not the flip)
