The plaintiffs are claiming that the TPAs are not certing them as real because it improves the TPAs standing in the autograph business world by holding down others and playing favorites. By controlling who they certify for, they would exert a certain amount of influence over the marketplace.
I think many of us here have experience bias by the TPAs in one way or another, I just don't know how they can prove it based on 10 photos.
