Leon, above you tell people to blame the grading companies for NOT catching Mastro's alterations. Then, you state you have NO PROBLEM with Mastro's types of alterations. Why did you say to blame the grading companies, if there is nothing wrong with Mastro's alterations? Which is it. Should someone be blamed or not? Sounds to me like you are saying it is OK for Mastro Inc. and Doug to do this type of alteration. However, if we who disagree want to blame someone, we need to blame the grading companies for NOT catching Mastro's alterations. Again, this would be like blaming the police for not catching a criminal. These statements do not make any sense when put together. Also, the statement of blaming the grading companies does not make any sense on its own merit. I would simply like an answer to the statement regarding blaming the grading companies for not catching Mastro's alterations without bringing in my opinions on Piedmont Wagners (which really is going O/T with this thread - if you want to discuss Piedmont Wagners, and start a new thread, I will be happy to chime in a couple of times with my views - even though I have stated them more times than some people want to hear).
