ORA grade A Picasso clown identity question.was I ripped off??

i don't think ORA grades them that all 3 bars should be connected. Just the 2. this is their ORA premium picasso from their site.

Who came up with the grading system anyways? Premium or grade X shouldn't matter as long as you are happy about your purchase... Sorry to say but people will use systems/new names and or design to fetch a higher price... That's the nature of everything... You go to MCD order a cheeseburger they charge $1.25 but if you order a mcdouble it's $1.00 same thing but less money and you get more meat/cheese with mcdouble. Overall great looking clowns...

I like them better than pictured. I would say however, that ORA has been slipping on their products in the last year or two. Last I spoke with one of the reps on the phone, I heard they were forgoing a change of hands. Unless you buy one of their SPS frags from Diver's Den, they just don't come in the same as they used to. Minimal encrusting, if any.

Love the Ritteri's, by the way! =) I have 3 in my 125. My two pair of SA designer clowns fight over them. I may consider posting photos of them here at some point.

The thing of it is if u r paying that much for a pair of clowns it better nice...I have another pair of platinum clowns and I love their coloration so I thought this Picasso ones wouldn't be the exeption..I just had my doubts on this one...I even went back to the store months later and ask the owner again if he really payed same price for both and he said yes Ora charged me for premium picassos but who knows right..lol
