Joe is speaking very broadly here. If I was someone who didn't know anything about this scandal, and I were to read his post, I would still not know anything about it.
He states how a lot of individuals do nothing but complain about the errors TPGs make and provide no logical solutions on making it better. Furthermore, he states that "their expectation of human-based opinion services is simply unattainable." I just feel that a lot of these trimmed cards that were outed on the Blowout Forums were not measured. Don't graders have some measuring devices on their desks? How often do they use them and how long does it take to measure a card? Is that asking for a lot?
His conclusion was the worst part. He states that "there will also be those who choose to spread fear and ignorance."
It's called awareness, Mr. Orlando. Those guys over at the Blowout Forums have made me
aware of this problem, and now I am
very careful about what I buy and that's a good thing, no?
I'm not going to stop purchasing PSA graded cards, and from time-to-time I will submit my cards in for grading as well, but like most people on here, I'm just very disappointed in the way PSA handled this whole thing.
