Why would I trust this seller...
Posted By: <b>Marc S. </b><p>As a general rule, if I see a seller guilty of past questionable practices, why should I trust him with anything else, if ever?<BR><BR>In particular, the seller is the apparent mastermind behind the "Nodgrass" T-206 scandal that seems to have found its way into PSA (and, I believe to a lesser extent) SGC holders. Now the card he has is a simple high-grade 1956 Topps team card:<BR><BR><a href="http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=1811781566" target=_new>http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=1811781566</a><BR><BR>(Apologies -- the card is not a true vintage card, but since this seller has affected the vintage market, I felt it was okay to post here...)<BR><BR>This seller has occassionally had high-grade 1950s PSA 9 and PSA 10 cards over the past few years -- many of which has gone into collections of others I know. <BR><BR>Now, the card looks fine, but there is a large level of concern for me. This seller has obviously been able to perpetrate other alterations at a professional-enough level that it has consistently gotten past the card graders (well -- consistently is debatable, as we do not know how many times the cards may have been rejected -- but I imagine that if he was red-flagged once, it would be hard to get the cards through after that...)<BR><BR>So, I am left as to why I would trust this seller?<BR><BR><img src="http://www.network54.com/Realm/PoetAsylum/pimp.gif"><BR><BR><BR>
