I think that we are seeing the last stand for TPG's. People are getting tired of the games played and the inaccurate grading of high-end cards. This goes along with the crooks that are able to carefully crack cases open and insert fake flips or fake cards. I truly enjoy card collecting but the issues out in the hobby will make it difficult for us to gain new people into the hobby. There will be fewer and fewer kids looking to take part in this as time goes on. I guess TPG's are like the big telco companies who use the motto "we suck less" and use this to try and gain your business over the competitors. This puts the hobby in a place that may get people to stop paying to get their cards graded. I am hoping we can make it through the BS that TPG's have brought into the hobby. Graded magazine cuts? Wow I hope to get a PSA 10 if I can only find a sharp pair of scissors.
