It has been brought to our
attention that BGS has reviewed this card in direct response to
speculation posted in this thread about the possibility of it having been
altered. BGS was made aware of all comments in this thread, and the card
was removed from the slab and reexamined by two Senior Graders. As the
attached letter will attest, BGS has again determined that the grades are
accurate, and that the card is unaltered. This card has been examined in
hand by BGS now on two separate occasions, and on both occasions it has
received an unaltered assessment. As a result of being contacted by an
attorney representing the card owner, we have locked the thread and
advise all to review their comments and guide themselves accordingly as it
relates to the LeBron James 2003-04 Upper Deck Exquisite Rookie Patch
Auto 25/99. Future posts regarding this card will be closely monitored by
counsel.
