Glad to be of help, I suffer from the same problem from time to time ;)
There are numerous dealers who are members of this forum and who many other members of this forum would highly recommend. But that's the easy...
I doubt it. The 70's will probably outnumber the 69s. As sellable as it will be if it is graded, and maybe even more so. For don't forget, a...
