Messaged him on his site a few months ago and we worked out a deal. He responded within like 45 minutes. I was impressed

No. But Tony is very solid to deal with and, I feel, fair. I have done many deals with him.

And a card, purchased from Tony’s website in May 2020 at a price that would seem like the world’s biggest steal today. As an added bonus the price on the website was $1k less than the eBay price.

Tony sold me a T222 SP card for significantly less than his eBay BIN price a few years ago at the National.

Funny how times change.
5 years ago I posted something nice about him and my interactions with him and a certain criminal defense lawyer who was huge on the board ripped my head off, basically calling me a compete uninformed moron. And a few of the regulars chimed in to tell me how stupid I was.
I’ve never had an an issue and he has great stuff.

"I've never had an issue" is fine as far as it goes, but it doesn't mean much. Most people in the hobby, both honest and dis, are easy to deal with and offer excellent customer service. For example, I've never had an issue with Brent.

Oh, so I should go through life not judging people and companies based on the merits of my own personal experience with them, but instead on hearsay from others about their dealings. So while I’ve purchased 5 Toyotas in my life and never had a problem and had impeccable personal service, I should be more concerned with other people’s experiences with their cars. Interesting idea.

It depends on your objective. If your objective is to avoid altered cards as best you can, which is my objective, then yes, in a hobby infested with altered cards, card doctors and their enablers, it can be very important to evaluate the conventional wisdom and to be receptive to what people you trust or who have no incentive to dissemble say.. If you just want the card I mean the slab, then sure go with whoever ships it quickly and securely.

And cars are a poor analogy, cars are commodities. Very different from cards, where some are natural and some are altered and it's not always easy to tell the difference or which sellers are more likely than others to be selling altered.

I guess that’s very useful advice if you don’t have the ability to otherwise detect an altered card.

Do you? I've been doing this a long time but I hardly think I can always tell from a scan or iphone pic.

I found what Steve was referencing earlier. According to Jeff L anyhow, Tony was banned by both PSA and SGC. It doesn't look like any details were given.

So somebody had a good experience with a seller and somebody who is not in this thread made an allegation against that seller 6 years ago in a short thread In which none of the insults stated to have been made actually appear. What a riveting beef.

Don't believe everything you read on the internet, especially from anonymous people.

Understatement of the year!!!! I actually made a few inquires and it seems to have been a well documented situation--the fake back stamps on the W575s and in fact the discovery of these fakes were from someone here. So at least in this instance the info referred to in that link seems to have been spot on.

Hobby is a tricky one to navigate. Everyone has to make a living. Too bad sometimes it is at the expense of innocent people.

Yes there was at least one thread here about those backs, was it Rhett Y. perhaps, don't recall.

And I agree with you and Leon about needing to be cautious about internet allegations. But there are times when common sense dictates that the accuser is in a position to know what he is talking about and probably is being truthful. Case by case determination.

In any event, we live in a strange time. It seems to be very in vogue these days to trash PWCC (and man the grief I used to take on that topic) but the rest of the world of dealers and AH's seems to get a great big pass as long as they return messages and don't overcharge for shipping.

One of the people I spoke with said there was another thread here that showed the before and after photos. Showing the cards as they were offered in an REA auction along with photos of the cards after the fake back stamps were put on them.

I seem to also recall a thread accusing culpable parties, but I can't find it.

Before my time. I had never even heard of this situation before last week. Anyway, I was not able to find the thread on here comparing the before and after photos and was interested in seeing that.
