IMO when you get to a place where you are willing to spend thousands and tens of thousands of dollars for differences in a card that it takes a neutron microscope to detect, then it has become about more than the card. Personally I don't have the resources or the stomach for that but that is what the top end of the hobby has become and I mean top-end from a grading perspective. There is nothing right or wrong about it but in turn it is wholly dependent at that point on the TPG companies and their ability to do a good, consistent and un-biased job.
BTW, to my thinking it is a matter of time probably bf the Cobb in question is back in a numbered holder.
