Ah yes because it's a 1/1 the grade doesn't matter is your personal opinion and theory. A BGS 10 and BGS 4 will surely sell for the same amount. Not sure what alternate universe you're living in.

You could have sent it to GMA grading they are cheaper

Wish I was living in an alternate universe without trolls in it. Alas, I have you (and Pete)!

All I can tell you is I was buying the card, not the grade. If you can find this card in a better grade, feel free to pay a premium for it. Likewise, if you can find it in a lesser grade, feel free to use mine as a point of comparison in an effort to get a better deal. Oh, wait...there’s only one. Damnit..!

The ad hominems are not a good look when the "troll" here correctly called you out on fixing a corner of the card

That definitely makes it ok to alter the card then!

PBM stepping UP!

pete2345 · 11-15-2019, 10:24 PM

People are trolling because why? Because they are pointing out some pretty obvious modifications done to that card. By using the photo you provided.

Soxfanguy · 11-15-2019, 10:25 PM

Makes sense why there is only 1. It is stamped 1/1 which means 1 total was made

Whatever you say. You clearly know everything. I defer to your infinite wisdom.

LVDan was right! i need more popcorn

Soxfanguy · 11-15-2019, 10:27 PM

Can anybody find the GIF of the guy with the popcorn eating it but he's jumping up and down so the popcorn is spilling everywhere? I've seen it on the basketball and maybe football section so hopefully people know what I'm talking about

jjeanius · 11-15-2019, 10:28 PM

BTW, Pete - sorry that Trout won the MVP yesterday!

No worries man It was well deserved he helped his team to almost a 100 loss season. I agree nothing screams valuable more than that.

jjeanius · 11-15-2019, 10:31 PM

DJ got six points in the MVP vote! That’s nothing to sneeze at..! He was only 350 points short of winning the award outright!

I, on the other hand, lost by 355 points! D’oh!

A-Rod in 2003? Yet the Yankees traded for him

KhalDrogo · 11-15-2019, 10:33 PM

Sad that these two clowns continue to derail every thread they want to.

pete2345 · 11-15-2019, 10:35 PM

I was not advocating for DJ to win once the season ended. But given the stats that were provided AB was the clear winner. But because baseball is desperate for a face for the sport it was given to trout. You can see how popular there choice was by checking all social media outlets.

Lol. So when the other guy with the Acuna uses the Card Doctor go up a 0.5 you said you'd stay away from that card, but when it's your buddy using his corner flattening techniques(edges possibly too?) then everything is all good! Nice!

If by “card flattening techniques” you mean I touched the card without wearing gloves...then yeah, guilty as charged.
