You're both right to a point - getting this back on topic - Copeland is in a way responsible for many cards being altered as is PSA. When people see the difference paid for PSA 7's compared to PSA 8's you're going to get a lot of nefarious people altering cards for profit. PSA is much more to blame because of the competition aspect they brought into the hobby which made prices for relatively common cards skyrocket. How does one explain that an SGC 98 1965 NL ERA leaders card that sold for $2500 then sells for $20,000 in a PSA 10 slab?
