Its so sad that these things have to happen but the real reality is as long as there is money to be made on any valuable item the Patrick Chans of the world will continue to thrive as long as there are buyers out there willing to put up big money for rare big ticket items that no one else has. Some will be caught others willnot. A great case in point is the $20 gold St Gaudens Double Eagles. Years past until someone finally figured out that many of them were faked with a small Omega mark on the back. The infamous OMEGA MAN who baffled some of the best experts for years was never caught. If it wasnt for greed it may never have been found out.
