Thanks Ted - I dont care to squabble either. I agree that the red hindu was a big screw up and never questioned that part of your statement - all grading companies make mistakes. Ive never argued anything to the contrary. I just think its unfair to label the cobb incident as a grading company mistake (even an inadvertent mistake) since the grading company didnt do anything but slab an authentic card that was removed by the end user.

I also do not construe posts pointing out mistakes in general as slab bashing (usually they are psa bashing, which Im ok with , but not slab bashing). In all honesty, however, I think some of your comments on slabbing in the past exceeded simply pointing out screw ups. I think others share that opinion. This really isnt about you - I used the other thread as an example, and specifically left your name out of it so as to not start an exchange such as the one we are now having. This thread, however, is a perfect example of "slab bashing". The problem is that the arguments are not well reasoned and that is why I began posting.

As for Ebay's new "hide the bidder" system, I couldnt agree more. I see no real benefit to it whatsoever.
