I don't understand the mind set of those that don't understand how shady the hobby is. My favorite part is how they think something could be going on but it doesn't affect them. I love the I collect this and the scammers stay away from it because there is no real $ in it.LOL dream on sucker. Scammers are selling $2 fake autographed cards up to the most expensive card in the hobby. Lets not forget the morons who think their PSA card(s) are not affected because this is something new.LOL PSA has been a scam since the beginning. They 100% need to fail if this hobby is going to go forward and clean itself up. I know my posts are not very popular on this forum but at least they are honest. |

Me: Sorry to tell you but that card is altered. Other: I can see how it could be altered but mine is NOT. Me: Your card is altered and I explain how. Other: Now this gets 3 different responses. 1) Least common, That sucks I now have a altered card in my collection. 2) Most common, I see the card listed as a rare error for sale within a few days by the person I was trying to help. 3) Have the card owner call me names and tell me how important they are in the hobby and how stupid I am. Then they list it as a rare error card for sale. I won't out names but I have had #s 2 and 3 happen on this forum from some very respected members. |

I hope PSA goes bankrupt much like I hoped GM would go bankrupt back in 1982 when My Trans Am was a lemon. I never purchased another GM piece of S***. My dream came true many years later but then the government inexplicably bailed them out. Maybe PSA will get bailed out by the Government? There's your car analogy for the day car guys, enjoy....

Meanwhile CLCT stock has recovered and then some from the drop the other day. Not so easy to short stock as some folks seem to think.

It's very easy to short and is up today on 10K shares.

It might be easy to get shares to short but it is a terrible short.
No liquidity and the open interest in the options market is tiny with massive spreads. It is one thing to not like CLCT and hope for its demise but a terrible trading stock. |

Maybe with inside information, but otherwise not so sure about that.

What does inside information have to do with whether it’s easy to short or not? And aside from that with what we have seen on this board and blowout over the past few weeks would you want to be a shareholder of this company?

I wouldn't want anything to do with this stock in either direction at this point. I think the market impact of this stuff is very hard to predict.

I'm starting to think you're like Mike O'Keeffe and just hate cards.

Hey Ben hope you are doing well. I am sure if you go back a few years you would remember O'Keefe.

Wherever there is money to be made, there will be a shady side.
