GM recognized a fantastic business opportunity in this hobby; namely the fact that average Joe collectors grading their own raw cards was something that had gone down the tubes because all anyone cares about anymore is grading. Though I will agree that his standards have slipped some (I'm sure a problem of scale) - when he first started, Greg was one of the only large sellers where you could buy an accurately graded / described raw vintage card. It's hard to give him too much credit for that, it was something that was desperately needed.
