The kid must've accompanied his mom to clean your house and has been using it as an action figure or toy. The other option is that it did fall in the garbage and the mom thought it would make a good toy for her son. Haha. That's funny either way.

Cleaning lady probably grabbed the garbage can to empty it, saw the card in the garbage, and figured her son might want it so she kept it. I'm assuming it was this kind of situation because if she took it to sell then it would have been long gone by now. Unless she was hoping for the value to skyrocket and instead it's dropped, but in general cleaning ladies aren't much for basketball card speculation.

Look at the centering on the back

Some drunk Beckett employee STILL gave it a 9.5 subgrade on the centering

I just don’t understand all this

front centering is dead on as far as I can tell, however. Maybe the back centering can't get any better, and maybe few people care that much about back centering. I don't.

Yeah that's my assumption. They didn't even know the value of it hence why they were asking me. I've had more valuable cards easily accessible and nothing has ever been taken.

In the past we had let them take some base cards that had been thrown in the garbage and some clothing items so we definitely contributed to the if its in the garbage you can have it type thinking. Which probably saved it from being in a trash dump as initially expected but also stopped me from finding it on my own.

Hold up, the real story here is you employ people who are not paid enough to afford internet or have ever heard of ebay. Alternatively you also seem to have $&@! you my house keeper is allowed to keep our garbage money which may or may not contain valuables from time to time.

Is this SNL?
