Kevin<Whether folks like you or not, or believe you or not, I appreciate you coming onto the board and sharing some of your knowledge. When trying to catch a criminal it's best to try to think like one. Most of us don't really think that way but it certainly helps to open it up a little>
So far the feedback has been very positive. No one is claiming to dislike or disbelieve...unless you know something I don't (LOL). Granted I needed to prove it first, which makes perfect sense.
It's not just being able to alter cards, I think anybody can do that. It's getting a variety past the professional graders and doing so each time. Once this is accomplished, knowledge can then be passed on because now it's proven credible.
"For now" I'm just bringing attention to some alterations that few knew could be done and might consider spending a fortune on. IMO at least a few collectors will now give some thought before buying that blank card or odd variation.
Who knows, maybe these posts are how graders learn as well.
