I think that you hit the key word, "market". If the market determines over time that their grading is too strict, then most people will avoid...
I'm not sure if I totally believe that. If true, it would hurt their reputations by admitting that they inflated grades. Couldn't they argue...
I'd hang on to the XF for a while and then try to sell it at Great Collections. Their seller fees are only 5% plus a $5 catalog fee. My guess is...
