Second, I am mystified as to why some people are against requiring auction houses to fully disclose all they know about a card that they believe a potential bidder would want to know. How is transparency a bad thing for the hobby?
Because people want to defend the auction houses they deal with, and because consignors don't want disclosures that might keep down prices.
