Matt,

I don't think its the same--a dealer could always sell the card raw if it did not grade.

Lee,

I agree with part of what you say. I think in the beginning Kevin works for who pays him and no disclosure is necessary.

Over time, it would be great if buyers demanded Kevin's approval on graded cards--not holding my breath on this one however.

Frank,

Who is to say it happened? Kevin said it--are you suggesting he is lieing? All one would have to do is ask Mike.

On your second point, I don't think its clearcut on every card. Reasonable people can disagree. If he has doubts I will pass.
