Default Is the Grading System Broken?

Posted By: JimCrqandell

Barry,

I think its more that they don't have the expertise to detect the sophisticated alterations that are going on now. As one president of a card grading company told me last night, guys are spending "every minute of their day" on improving their craft of card restoration. At this point in time, I believe that the crooks are ahead of the grading companies, speaking about them as a group.

Heck, if Kevin can show Mike Baker, who most consider the top grader in the business, a few things I am sure he and others can teach an average grader a heckuva lot.

Jim
