Steve Steve -- From what I have been made to understand from the thread a few weeks ago on the new half-grade system, for the resubmits PSA will NOT be looking for alterations. So I don't think any phone calls will be forthcoming.
So basically you take what you read on a message board as gospel? I don't recall anyone from PSA coming here (they no better) and making that claim. Just like the 'helping the hobby' speel, if something gets said enough times it becomes the truth.
Great, however, all I did was answer your previous question. Now I'll try and answer this one as well.
Lets assume an altered/counterfiet/reprint is obvious, The grader is not looking for them but can't miss it. Then you will expect a call.
Everyone and their grand mother knows PSA is making money doing this. What company doesn't make money selling a service or product?
What collector selling his cards doesn't try to make money?
Jonne makes some great points however I think she missed one, PSA or whoever charges more for higher dollar cards. If something happens to them the payout is higher thus the service level is too. That is at least the theory. Or part of it anyway.
