Exactly.
There is no doubt whatsoever that the case is still being worked on. I expect more legal (authorities) issues for the culprits than I do personal lawsuits, though there still could be some. Quote:

The 10s just keep coming. Something, IMO, is very wrong here. |

"resubmit constantly to get cards into their right holders"
Wow, that is some statement about the state of card grading. |

I find it a fascinating testament on the human condition. Collectors on this board don't want to hear about what they should do. They want to collect what they love :D:D:D:D:D:D:D:D:D:D so they can Continue to get their teeth handed to them by a billion dollar corrupt industry. Yes, fascinating indeed. |

Sometimes feel like I'm the only person who has never resubmitted a card. Silly me I thought the grade was the grade was the grade...
|
I hope microtrimming never ever becomes acceptable....
Does PSA even look at edges or grain of a cards borders ?? Or is that biased on whom is submitting the cards? |
The bigger question is why people put so much faith in what the self-appointed experts say? Especially since they've proven time and again that they can't detect alteration. And why such huge premiums are paid for slab numbers that are at best variable, and subject to change on a whim.
Other than the money/greed/ego aspect, I will never understand this segment of collecting. |
Quote:
I believe the Only Reason People Put So Much Faith in PSA is their belief that the card will sell for the most in a PSA holder. Until that belief becomes Fiction I sadly think the insanities will continue. |

Speaking only to the vaping "crisis", the big issue there is counterfeit vaping cartridges. People make these black market cartridges and sell them as legitimate brand name cartridges. These counterfeit cartridges contain harmful substances that give the cartridges an aesthetically pleasing look. There is no real crisis when it comes to legitimate products. Just saying..

To me the market or lack of buyers is what will Stop or Slow down the fraud/manipulation. By now If people still don’t get it they never will.

Maybe we should ban cigarettes? A few more than 805 have gotten ill or died from those. More like 500,000 confirmed deaths.....EVERY YEAR. Verify that. Still, there are fake cards in slabs everywhere. Just look at your own collection and half are fake. |
there's plenty of alterations out there but I don't agree that half of collections out there are fake. if you truly believe that, pm me your vintage card collection in slabs and I'll buy it from you for 55% of market value. that would be a good deal since it's only worth half of market value if half are fake. I don't understand the point of continuing in the hobby and continuing on the message board if you hate the hobby (you've stated this in the past) and think half the cards are fake. Why not do yourself a favor and get out of the hobby altogether?

It’s probably a little more complicated than that. A complex love/hate relationship...
Kind of like a Love for the hobby, but hatred for those who have made it be all about money, greed, ego, ripping people off, favoritism, denial, turning a blind eye and shareholder profits. Very difficult to completely abandon something you’ve loved and poured your heart into for many years/decades. |

In this trimming issue there are no lawsuits so all of these complaining on the board seems odd considering there are no lawsuits. If it was such a big deal why arent there lawsuits. It appears everyone is getting paid back and/or happy is my point. Its been a long enough wait at this point for something to have happened. You are making my point. Thanks |
Quote:
As for my point, the reason you aren't getting any calls from any potential litigants against PSA is, well, I think we both know. Even the second biggest dullard on the board understands. |

I'm not happy with any of this crap, but I have no grounds for filing any lawsuits against anyone. So just because there are no lawsuits doesn't mean everyone is happy. I'm quite the opposite as happy. And a lot of other people are just an unhappy about the whole thing as I am. To make the argument that no lawsuits means everyone is happy is just unreal. And every time this argument is made it makes for an easy target for ridicule.

But although I am not personally filing any lawsuits, who knows how many other defrauded people are preparing for litigation. This is the infancy stage. Many victims have not yet become aware of the situation, but they very well might, in due time. PSA wants everyone to go back to the sellers for refunds. But what if the tainted cards were bought months/years ago? What if the Dealer is no longer in business or is unreachable? What if the card was obtained via trade show, in which the seller has been long-forgotten? The vast majority of us have no idea what's happening behind the scenes. Give it adequate time, for goodness' sake. |

Or what if the dealer bought it from another dealer? And so on. Are they supposed to follow this trail until you get to the person who had it graded from PSA? And then what?
Having PSA tell you to go back to the last seller is a cop out. |

I ask myself this question, What exactly is the purpose of their services if they can't tell what is altered and what is not? It's the allusion of when your card is graded it becomes instantly a prized commodity primed for registry sets and low pops......ALL B to THE S............ Keep Hush the Suckers Need Us and They Always Come Back....This Will Pass and We Will Prevail...... |

Its interesting that almost every comment you make has an insult in it. We all know about people who find they have to belittle people. I am making a point. There are no lawsuits. Only takes one major suit to help resolve other potential cases so having one lawsuit is a big deal versus zero. There is no final answer that you have or I have as to why there arent any. We all have are viewpoints. I am free to make my own point and you are free to make your point. Even people not in penthouse lawyer offices are free to make our points known. The fact you bother to reply to little ole me shows me something. I assume you will again respond with an nursery school insult and raise your dorsal fin but again you will feel the need to say something. Thats the funny thing. |
