\nDuke\u2019s L of the week:
\nDuring a show a customer set his cards to trade on a table, one of them being a Jalen Hurts card and the card, along with several others fell over and the card was damaged. Duke did the customer right by purchasing the card at the value before the drop.

Chad\u2019s L of the week:
\nHe bought a Ohtani card for $30 with shipping that was in mint condition. The guy he bought it from sent it in a bubble wrap thinking it was going to be great. The card was completely bent because he didn\u2019t ship it correctly. Stay tuned later this week on how to properly package and ship your cards!
\nPaul\u2019s L of the week:
\nDon\u2019t crack and resubmit PSA grades. Paul didn\u2019t get the grade he wanted so he submitted 8 cards and they came back a lower PSA grade then what they were before he sent them. Lessons learned.
