that's why I was asking about authentication thru reholdering.
a reholder fee on $5K is $35.
a review fee is $500 - $700.
I can not imagine they are paying the guy that's reviewing cards @ $700 a pop, the same as the guy that is reholdering at $35 a pop.
people send in cards all the time to be reholdered because they've been dropped, cracked, etc.
are the guys "reholdering" proficient in spotting an altered card/holder?
ie. scammer cracks a case. inserts doctored card, but doesn't necessarily reseal or does a great reseal job and then sends it in to get reholdered?
or buy a few high dollar real cards and slip a doctored one in the bunch?
not saying this IS happening.
but is it possible to slip one past the goalie occasionally?
I was just trying to get an answer but was told that I wouldn't even be talked to by jackie* even though it says "if you would like to discuss w/ me, my number is..."
* side note: and i believe this to be the same jackie that mods the cu board
