Mark,

Wow!! Thats a low blow. Quite the opposite. I was talking about other alleged doctors and was told to delete the posts do to the sensitivty of the issue.

I don't think erasing a pencil mark is a bad thing but I have and will never alter a card. I will however submit and resubmit cards to obtain the most favorable grade because I think grading is subjective.

As for Jay well, I think Jays record on this board is well documented. I wish he would get over it. I made a rookie mistake and posted a card that belonged in the B/S/T category. But I also felt he and Zach went over the line pounding that point home.

Anyway, I hope that is behind us and I hold no hard feelings.

Lastly, If I was doctoring cards the last thing I would do is represent them in my own auction. I would do would all the other doctors do, sumbit them anonymonously in other peoples auctions.

I have nothing to hide and stand by everyone of my auction lots 100%. And I also do not feel bad when I get a card upgraded because many cards that I submit for an upgrade don't get the upgrade and cost grading fees not to mention those that go down in grade or won't ever grade again.

Please feel free to email me regarding anything
