I wonder if TPGs looked at the finite number of vintage cards to be graded and decided that they could stay in business a lot longer if they built some error into the system so that over time they could get paid for grading a lot of cards multiple times. I realize that I am leaving the new card market out of the equation as I don't know much about it, but it seems many of the same problems exist there as well (though obviously new cards are still being printed).

While you may be right...this is obviously disconcerting to me! SO as a dentist it would be in my better interests to do a "shoddy" job rendering my treatment so as to "create" more return business??? Problem with this theory is that there are many other dentists out there my patients can turn too when they lose faith in my abilities...whereas we have very few options with TPG'ers!
