No, you have the option to get it graded by your own expert prior to committing to the deal. If the dealer won’t agree to let you have you show it to your own grader and return it for a 100% refund if you’re not happy with the results, walk away.

There's never a crowd when you go that extra mile.

I agree with the others, and to answer your original question....no, I would not trust an EGL SI2 to be eye clean.




~~~ When in doubt...don't.~~~

I would not trust any si2 too be eyeclean until it is seen by a trusted expert whose definition of eyeclean I know.
The vendor should provide this service and have a 100% return policy if it isnt or shop with someone who does.
The other option is of course an appraiser but the vendor should be the first filter.
