That's precisely why PSA is the greater evil here...

Once those cards are slabbed, they can re-appear anywhere. Even if PWCC is eventually disbanded, the PSA cards are still out there in mass quantities. The "blind faith" in PSA is what drives the corruption, and has forever called their product into question.

It's not like Chipotle, who suffered a temporary setback with the tainted food scandal. Bad food can be destroyed and is then gone forever. So eventually all is forgotten. NOT the case here, however... we will never truly know how deep the PSA infection runs, or how many tainted cards continue to reside in collections, will be traded, have already been traded, and eventually will be passed down.

It's not pleasant, and is not what people want to hear (given their personal stake in PSA Graded Cards). But unfortunately what we've seen this past month is the perverbial the tip of the iceberg.
