It would disgust me to no end that PSA would get away with not paying any damages regarding this scandal. Hopefully they will shoulder the burden at some point as an incentive to clean up their act and be more vigilant in screening out the card doctors.

If PSA gets off scot free, then nothing is solved. As mentioned earlier, it's great that PWCC is refunding customers... certainly better than the alternative.
But that does not fix anything, moving forward. If we stop at simply issuing refunds, the same thing will occur again in the not so distant future. The punishment for card doctors and complicit auction houses must be severe and lengthy. And there must be a change in the way TPGs operate. A new set of standards must be implemented or forced upon them, as they cannot be trusted to police themselves. There is absolutely no safeguard in place to protect the customer/collector. Hopefully law enforcement will help to fill that role.
If not, then indeed nothing will change.
