Ichiro graded goodness and some more Leaf

[Topnotchsy]

This beauty just arrived in the mail freshly graded:

And I'll be the first to admit I was not a fan of Leaf Metal, but that is before I saw one of these in hand. Boy do these pop, the scans do not do them justice. (And the last one of these got $100 in auction.)

And here is the Rendon Black /5. Has a light crease on the back, (which according to Brian may be an issue on all 5 copies of this card as he was contacted about a similar problem on another copy, and apparently it was a printing issue.) Worked with Brian to a conclusion that left everyone satisfied, something I really appreciate. Had it slabbed authentic (as can be seen.)

Should have some serious maildays in the next few days, but got to scanning these tonight.

Sweet Ichiro. Nice auto on it. Leaf did a great job getting his autos on market again.

That slabbed Ichiro looks great man sick card. Honestly, that stinks about the crease I hope it's a really, really light one and Brian helped you out with it, good call getting the authentic slab on it anyways.

The crease is unfortunate though just significant enough that BGS hit it hard (hence the "authentic" slab) but really not bad at all and Brian made sure to set things right on it. Meanwhile it's still a /5, from the front it looks gem, and it seems like they may all have this issue, so not like there's a better one out there.
