Default Grandpa's Back!

Posted By: Frank B


I know some think the borderline incompetence of these criminals is amusing
and laugh it off. They will learn from their mistakes however and get better at it and
it probably won't be so funny down the road when things aren't so transparent.

They use numerous shill bidders or just use a private auction. They steal scans
(notice this guy realized that swiping from auctions won't work so he now has
ungraded cards up). When these guys work out all the kinks it will not be
so amusing. Buying ungraded cards is tough enough. Just imagine if this one could
write a nice, understated description instead of using the stupid grandfather script.
