MWDavid,
Excellent post. Third party grading services, auction houses and authenticators that do not fully inform the public and that "hide" the truth in order to serve their own agendas, have no place in this hobby. When errors are ignored, when security issues are wantonly discarded and when excuses are substituted for explanation and action, collectors are left with uncertainty and doubt.
In the coming week or two I will provide one of the major grading services an opportunity to correct a significant error it has made. Regular participants and readers of the Network54 forum will be able to see firsthand how this company handles serious grading issues.
