Go BODA! Thanks for all your hard work.
Side note/thought - what if everyone kicked in $50 or $100 each year and we, as a hobby, hired BODA, and some guys trained by BODA, to just troll auctions and listings and out cards that appear to be altered. In other-words, the hobby voluntarily funds a watchdog TPG for the benefit of the hobby. Obviously it needs thought and there are many operational issues, not the least of which is funding, but I, for one, would contribute to that cause.

I'm all for this. Of course, it would take a lot more than contributions from just the members here. I'm thinking, across the hobby, there are at least a few hundred, maybe a thousand collectors, who'd be willing to pitch in something. Many might only be willing or able to pitch in $50 or $100 per year, while a few high rollers might be willing to pitch in thousands of dollars. I could imagine around $80K to $100K being raised every year, realistically. Maybe even more?
