A "giant fracas ensued".....?

:roll:

And....which one of us "insisted" that this was a "mis-labeled gold variant"....?

:roll: :roll:

People suck.

But hey, it's the "only one EVERY graded!"...whatever THAT means.

It means he's the only one who wasted $25 grading a 9.6 X-O #0.

I've managed to track down the meaning of this phrase:

This is from the "original" doosh-ese....

"I'm sure if I wait long enough some incompitent boob will believe me."

It's controversial fellas - and while your there check out the great PGX 9.8 Harby#1 for 2,500+ :clap:

PGX>CGC

:thumb:
There's a huge scan with that ad for the Harby, typical problem areas around the top and middle staple and a cover that looks like it has been shrunk! 9.8 I think not.

It's not. It's a different seller.
I will say this about PGX. I have a Harbinger 1 in PGX 9.6 and they forgot to mention anything on the notes on the case about the coupon, whether it has it or not. That's inexcusable for a company calling themselves a professional grading service.

Well, to be fair I have a CGC slab like that with the same issue (and of the same issue) actually.
Wow. CGC did the same thing. I'd no idea.
That really devalues the book, unless there's no coupon in it.

I can't believe this guy, but if I could possibly sell something for that kind of money I would definitely try.

Not really - apparently they'd give it a green label with no coupons. At least according to Gregory. I'm not sure if that's true or not.
They'd give it a green label as a qualified book if they were grading it as qualified. Leaving any commentary completely off regarding the coupon makes it uncertain as to whether they even checked for the coupon, or completely forgot about it. At least, that's how I feel about it. Maybe others won't feel the same way.
Thanks for pointing that out, though. That's a pretty big mistake by CGC, equalling the mistake I pointed out by PGX.

I posted this in a earlier thread that turned to this topic:

Actually, I think all the label's, blue or green, say that the coupon is included. The area on the right side is used for book specific information and is the same for every book.

If the cards or coupon is missing, the book will have a green qualified label and the reason for the qualification is in the center of the label.

I believe you can see this in action with the Harby 3 9.8 - GLOD (no coupon) that I donated to a board auction over a year ago. This book still said "coupon included" on the right side of the label. I can't locate the scan at the moment, though.

You can call CGC toll free and the grader's notes will say whether the coupon is included or not even if the label fails to mention it. But, it should be on the label.
