    I'd definitely keep it sealed. As far as Steve is concerned, didn't his rep take a massive hit after the Logan Paul fiasco?

    for a bit, but it didnt stick. I dont think it is possible to have a 100% perfect record when it comes to authenticating anything. I think in that instance, he left his lane and attempted something he was not an expert in.

    If he wasn't an expert on this particular case, why would he even try to authenticate it? Also, who was left holding the bag?

    I'd be surprised if he received even one 10. However if he consigns them for sale raw via a well known New England based interest and they submit them then he may very well hit 4-7 10's. All that assumes they were stored properly and not totally "bricked"

    yup, they'd probably get 20+ 10's and a lot of 9's

    My rip stats would suggest 1982 TT sets average 1.6% PSA 10 and 17% PSA 9. The NE company ripped two sealed cases years ago and landed the majority of the PSA 10 in the marketplace from that sub. Many of those PSA 10 are not centered 50/50 and likely would be 8-9 by today’s grading standards.

    If your friend wants to sell the case, I am a buyer. I would personally keep the case sealed as is.

    unless submitted by the "experts"?

    I think he probably was attempting to get into the Pokemon "field" and also wanted the exposure that authenticating a very high dollar rare item would bring him and the business. At any rate, he struck out on that one in a very public way.

    I believe that Logan Paul was refunded his money from the person he purchased from.
