"If they are not sure, which I am pretty sure has never happened," LOL ...I am seriously sitting here laughing my ass off....thank you, thank you...

But we do agree on not disclosing the prior, potentially errant grade.

There is no gray area for a card being trimmed or not. It is either trimmed or it is not. If they are not sure, which I am pretty sure has never happened, then they have to err on the side of rejecting the card and stating Evidence of Trimming and a card can meet or exceed factory size specifications even if it is trimmed.

I am not afraid. I think the card speaks for itself. As do all cards in holders and many of which have had more than one opinion before they are bought by collectors. The lack of disclosing might turn away 50% of Net54 voters (many of whom do not understand what Min Size actually means, still) but my stance is that GA should not HAVE to disclose the prior opinion.

If we all want to believe that the cards we have in our collections in graded holders have been given an opinion that will stand the test of time, we are sadly fooling ourselves. If we all want to believe all the cards in our collections have only been submitted once, we are again fooling ourselves.

DiMaggio sold for 149K w/ BP.
That's crazyyyyyy considering the guy only paid 22K for it a few months ago!!

Same card, different flip, makes all the difference. That's what the hobby has come to, for better or worse. Nice payday for the consignor.

I bet the person that sold it with the "A" flip is flipping out. No palms getting greased on this one...

+1. I always say, the flip trumps the card! So sad....
