Rick (calleocho)A good idea would be to look at more mature hobbies and how they have dealt with similar problems.
Coins would be a good start
I also think increasing the fees for grading dramatically could help ...dont know how popular that would be.
However ..the hobby will evolve ...some in it wont ..but thats life
Im not that pessimistic about it though...most collectors are quite passionatte and do try to learn more everyday about the hobby, the cards etc.
I also see collectors pay more for eye appeal than technical grades and most collectors also realize that a slab while helpful its not the ultimate judge of a card's authenticity or quality.
