Lets say you initially paid $1k for the card grading and it came back as alterred.. would they then refund you $925? I thought this is why they have customers assign their own declared values. I can maybe see an upcharge to the next level or two, but anything more is extortion.
So would grading a dinged up MJ Fleer RC would cost less than grading a mint copy? You pretty much have to grade it yourself first before actually having them grade it.
Anyways IMO that's absolutely absurd. They should have settled it way before any of the grading happened. Contacting you first and saying "Hey, this Duncan is a $40k monster, would you like to proceed? For $1k and you'll get it back tomorrow." You then have the option to kindly say "No thank you." Then just go with BGS for $50.
