Lost CGC/JSA Order

One fun fact I left out was that the only reason I sent the Mantle to CGC was that PSA deemed the auto inauthentic…PSA auto authentication is incredibly frustrating.

PSA/DNA has two of the most respected authenticators in the business in Bill Corcoran and Kevin Keating. Did they also fail the Maris and Giles you sent to JSA?

Yes, PSA failed the Maris and Giles too

Not sure why PSA/DNA failed the Mantle. It looks dead on to me. But, obviously we have dueling authenticators on it.

You were very fortunate to get a $3500 settlement on the Mantle as that is the top end for a grade 7 autograph on a 66 Topps card. It helps that the card was a 5 but still they could have easily just settled for the valuation you gave it whether $700 or $1000. Good for them. Somebody may have seen the post on here and figured a positive result to be posted here was worth the additional payoff. Just a guess.

CGC settled it before the thread caught traction…I don’t think this thread had anything to do with the settlement. I feel quite fortunate.

Your initial post was up for 30 hours before you stated the final resolution.

That is a LONG time in today's world!
