I didn't try to sell either but, the fact remains, and it's the only relevant fact, Scottrade made an error that they will need to rectify - they being Scottrade. I don't know how they will fix their error but they will eventually need to provide actual certs to the brokers and there are two possibilities that seem plausible. The first is that they will buy them in the open market which is good for anyone who owns this stock when that happens. The second is that they will cut a deal with the company for certs. Some will attempt to put a negative spin on this second option but I prefer to own stock in companies with cash on hand so this second option is also good in my view.
