You know this time Teletrade has really ticked me off!

Don't get me wrong, I like Teletrade! They usually do a great job on auctions and the descriptive bullcrap that goes along with an auction. Well over the past few months I have seen a few changes. When you look at a coin you only see the past pricing history on PCGS coins, not NGC coins.
But here we have a NGC POP 1/0 coin with the most creative description ever!!!
Yep! NOTHING!! Does it mention that this is the only T2 Washington in PF70DCAM, NO! does it mention anything about the coin, NO! Yes, it's my coin and I'm pissed! I already instructed them to pull the auction and return the coins to me so I can send them to Heritage where they will at least get a description!

It is not exactly cheating, I prefer to consider it creative problem solving!!!

Damn, and I already had a max bid of $3500 placed.

If it were my coin, I would not want the pricing history to appear. PCGS has graded 19 of these. Yours is a POP ONE UNIQUE. I think it would do better with the bidders imaginations running wild.

I thought a 70 grade means actually perfect, not virtually perfect? (Ignoring the ICG, PCI, and SGS definitions)

Why would he bother? The same coin(s) will turn up on eBay the following week.

It means "perfect" within a certain level of inspection, i.e., magnification. Of course, no coin is "perfect."
