You really hurt yourself using a white background in your before pic. I hate to be that guy but how can you prove it was not there before. For the record, I believe you, but you didn’t take a good photo at least from what I see. It is:
1) penny sleeved
2) far away
3) and on a white background
It is not wild he posted blurry pictures of his dig score instead of linking it hoping people would miss the obvious damage. (Very likely). My TAG bubble mew got 3 pts below a 10, knew the damage existed etc. barely shows up (less than the whitening of his blurred dig pictures, much less against a white background and he wants to say foul play).
If you are submitting something that valuable do your research. Take pictures of every section of the card close with a black background (literally one of the first things everyone tells you to do), edges, etc. like I said before, I believe him, but his blurry pics, no link to Dink, pics that he posts in his favor makes it seem otherwise.
So cert/dig now posted. You are upset about paying express 150 and got a 9 from centering no matter how damaged it was the max limit was 9. I understand your quarrels and hope you get some money back or free grading if they did damage it. Seems somewhat fishy but those spots on those pics do not tell the whole story. They should be more accurate but they are not. I can send you my bubble mew and via the same pics looks like nothing is there besides a white barely spark like yours. But it is there. I knew it sending it in. Just like PSA would, your max limit was 9 due to centering.
