Again I'm not privy to the full details on what the reseller actually does, as long as I get my money. The card is fair game and in only worth what a buyer is willing to pay. Nobody is holding a gun to the buyers head and asking for money
wow! So basically he is deceiving people by getting the card graded higher then it should be from his "inside contact" and making a huge profit from it?
You don't have an issue with this?
very very slim chance of being screwed unless for some reason, BGS or PSA refused to authenticate it..... then the deal is buggered. And that is when I get my card back and about $200 in shipping and insurance cost for all the trouble.

Don't want to name scumbag, don't think that is professional
As for sending it for grading myself.... It might not work in my favour.... apparently, re-seller has inside contact to get "favourable grading".
Did you contact the consignment seller or did the dodgy member pass on your details and strike a private deal. You want to hope that this other party does not send you back a dodgy version ! if he is worried about it then I would be concerned about his motive. All I can say is good luck with it all and it is sad that it is going offshore instead of landing in a collection here
I have lost count how many ebay sellers with huge feedback that have done a major rip off ! fingers crossed
1. This sounds dodge to me along with the other spin you got from him.
- Must sell within 48 hours or forget it (WHY? if the buyer wants the card for the 23 number on it then he could wait a little longer)
- Remove photos of here (WHY? legally it is your card still until you get payment)
- Must send to verify card (WHY? no deposit was given to you as security)
- Magically going to grade the card higher for you.
2. That is ethically wrong.
3. Personal Opinion - I would not buy a graded fleer card (because I cannot touch it) unless I was chasing a graded set (ie my PSA 9 1986-87 fleer set).
PSA 9 ? maybe if this guys contact at the grading company didn't get them graded ! they might be 7's inside a 9 case
nah man BGS is the one EVERYONE wants no way that card is worth $7-8K PSA graded. BGS is king man hahha.

What if he gets them to grade it lower and gets it cheaper and then gets them to re-grade it higher to sell off for more money?
So let me get this right, you almost got ripped off on this card then you turn around and do a deal with someone who has said he can get cards graded favourably therefore falsely increasing the value of the card for your benefit and you're now fine with it?
I can but won't answer all your question. If you have a genuine question, I am happy to answer but if you are just trying to bash the card, or myself or my actions, I suggest you keep your opinions to yourself. Don't mean to offend, but please keep the topic objective & not subjective. Appreciate that..
I am not trying to bash you or the card, but the guy feeding you these things. The more you reveal of what he says the more questions arise then answers from this reseller.
B.I.N.G.O. and that is where Tommy got his name oh
I cannot defend the reseller's actions. But I have left it in his hands in providing the best possible value for the card. The proof of the pudding would be in 2-3 weeks time on whether I get my money. Time will tell.
Do I win anything?
well i hope you get it too. very high risk move like other said. i hope you know where this guy lives. I know when someone did send me my hdd back (worth 150 only) i paid them a visit lol.
Give me your address and I'll send you a few cards.
what happened with this?....did you sell it? did you get the coin?
So now you can stop lowballing..?
Sorry...
I hope you have stored pictures for you to treasure forever
