    I'd submit for review. Then you will be told why it only got an 8.

    << <i>Man ... I agree with the "Unitas graded an 8. really makes me wonder what the purpose of the 1/2 grade is , if that card can not get an 8.5 , i am not sure what should" comment.

    Looks like an "8" would bring in ~$900.00. However, a "9" sold for over SIX GRAND 2.5 years ago. >>



    Maybe we're all missing something on the Unitas, but if it was up to me, I would resubmit for a review.
    So basically my kid won't be able to go to college, but at least I'll have a set where the three most expensive cards are of a player I despise ~ CDsNuts

    In your honest opinion, is the Dick Moegle card really the best of the bunch?

    It's a great looking card but what's keeping it from a 8.5 is the top to bottom centering. While it looks at first glance to be 60/40, the registration of the yellow ink is shifted below the easier to see orange border. So between the registration issue and how it affects the centering measurement, a very nice 8 is what you have. It could be just the scan, but it also looks like there's a slight tilt to the card. If it hasn't been sent back yet see if they can pull it and review the grade.
