I am trying hard to word this carefully, and this is a sincere question.
but are you getting a better product because of the afa grade?Did you ever stop to think that these sellers are selling to a specific group of collectors that pay higher prices for graded figures?
when i started collecting figures in 00-01, paint rub and light scares or discoloration made the figure c-7 (acording to my lees guide), but it would seem to me (i saw a blue snaggletooth auction about 1 month ago) that a figure thusly worn was an afa grade 85 (c 8.5).
perhaps i do not understand the grading curve, but to me at least it seemed to generate a little confusion and hesitation to purchase.
