Of course...and the reasons why should be obvious. Many here are still bidding/buying and consigning to those auction houses in question. The only time a line is drawn is when the items are just plain fake (ie Coach's Corner). Some (I won't say all) auction houses have figured out that collectors will put up with a certain amount of fraud in order to obtain the "golden ring".
