Default But why should I feel "very confident" with your research?

So the pseudonymous Ty Cobb says: "many collectors put in a life time to collecting these cards and catalog them ,, but strangely the research itself is discounted. But why? The grading card company doesnt have a scan of what he graded either! How silly. Does that mean in the future what the pop reports are will trump the research of veteran collectors , when the grading companies have no scans or records themselves,,,lol"

And Art says: "I feel very confident with my research."

I agree with Mr. Cobb -- in general terms -- about "the research of veteran collectors." And I agree with Mr. Cobb wholeheartedly about the reliability of grading companies, or lack thereof.

But anytime a supposed expert responds to a series of reasonable, fact-based questions with, "I feel very confident with my research," I have to ask: Why should I feel very confident with your research?
