I am not condoning any of the actions of others. I am trying to point out to the vigilante's that they may want to approach this in a positive manner and not a lynch mob mentality.
Jim,
You may be able to sustain the loss in your portfolio, others may not be able. Also I would like to point out in defense of the card hobby as a whole, that the number of altered cards(not pencil removal or wax removal) but trimmed, rebuilt, recolored, etc in holders is extremely small probably less than 1%. Is that too much? yes, But is it worth throwing the baby out with the bath water? Let the grading companies do their job to the best of their abilities and help them to find ways to circumvent all of the new tech alterations.
Adam,
you are correct, there are a large number of people reading this board that would be delighted to see the high end cards plummet.
Disclosure: I have both raw and high end graded cards in my collection.
