This too is Evan. Also presented without comment. I am not sure how it connects to trimming cards.

I am shocked, shocked I say.

But when you can turn a $5 card into a $2000 card because there are people lined up for that $2000 card and they don't care why not.

The irony made me laugh. Evan repeatedly advised the audience to carefully perform certain doctoring tricks a specific way to avoid damaging the card. He then proceeds to cut the card’s entire top edge off.

This is why my collection is all PSA 1-5 quality. In 25 years, when all of the low grade cards are altered/doctored to be PSA 7+, my low grade cards will have unlimited potential, much like the allure of an unopened pack today.

I have sold several Authentic and low grade cards in PSA slabs to see them show back up in a new holder. The exact same card magically being a little nicer and one to 2 grades higher. Collecting lower grade cards does not mean they haven't already been worked on.

That guy is a poor excuse for a human being with no moral character whatsoever.

I wonder why he's posting this video? Wasn't he previously denying the card trimming allegations? And wasn't he allegedly being investigated by the FBI during that whole trimming scandal investigation that ended up going nowhere?

I wonder if PSA and SGC cut him off or something like that, and this is his retaliation? Because he cross-posted this video on Instagram, and he tagged Nat Turner in the comments, saying "this is how all of your vintage cards got high grades".

Yes, but it’s a far lower loss if it is found out to be manipulated over a high grade card. I try to get low grade with solid eye appeal for this reason. Not because it’s not possible that it has been worked on but because it’s much closer to the floor if anything has.

I think Mathis is just angry and bitter ….he is one of the few guys to have owned a high grade 52 Mantle and not make money on it over the past 20 years. He had a great card, a PSA 9 and he made no money and who bought it flipped it real fast and made $3 million!
