If anyone hasn't seen it yet, the documentary on Netflix called "Sour Grapes" really points out that many collectors turn a blind eye or make excuses for things they know is wrong. At what point does the Hobby come crashing down again? You know it will at some point and it's going to be harder and harder to convince new collectors to part with their money if everything they see is built on fraud.
Everything isn't built on fraud though. This is an issue with autograph authentication. Nobody has been able to create a T206 that passed as authentic made in 2019.
