2019 • PSA 2.5 cert# 27629650 • BlowOut →
Sold on 11/17/2017 as a PSA 2.5 by Heritage Auctions to an unknown buyer for $823.00
Consigned to PWCC and sold on 10/4/2018 as a PSA 6 for $4,700.00
Value gain of $3,877.00!
Here we have another card purchased from Heritage Auctions which ended up sold through PWCC and its grade improved after alterations were undertaken. This card has been chemically washed, which has resulted in reverse staining being eliminated. It has also turned the red ink darker, which seems to be a common side effect of the chemicals used by card doctors. Furthermore, two corners have been altered: the upper right has been sharpened and the upper left has been more uniformly rounded.
This card once again raises the question: who is purchasing these cards through Heritage Auctions, altering them, grading them, and then selling them through PWCC Auctions without disclosing the alterations? Heritage Auctions holds the key to finding out this critical information, whether it is Gary Moser, someone associated with PWCC, or another buyer.
Green rectangles show the two altered corners. Blue circles show the unique paper fibers. This card was sent in by yet another tipster via e-mail. Thank you to him.
