I haven't been watching too closely, all I know is that there were some really crazy rises in prices on a lot of material.

From a morale stand point - the hobby is SUCKING because the TPGs allow it to suck and they really don't seem to care about fixing anything. Money IN, Plastic slab OUT. It doesn't matter if the card is altered - it's their "subjectivity" that is being sold and if that's their opinion, you're buying it along with the rise in prices it causes across the board. Yes, the crappy grading will continue until it doesn't. Don't worry, gradings crappy!
