I know of at least 5 people who had their accounts suspended over this.
So why is that so if it is heritage's mistake?
I saw on another thread over in the card forum, that some members thought that an auction house shouldnt have it's other entity bid on cards on its own auctions, and the owner agreed, and said they wouldn't do that anymore,
But i never heard of people getting their bidding accounts suspended for bringing it up.
Why the payback? 7 months ago I asked them why they put up these auction loa's and precerts before the authentication companies looked at the items, and they told me to mind my own business, that it was no big deal.
Then they had 7 months to fix the problem, and they didn't, because they didn't believe it was a problem, until the publicity got too big, and it blew up in their faces.
All of the sudden they are acting like this is some new problem they hadn't heard of before, and please bear with us as the IT guys need time to write up a computer program.
Well, Mr. Ivy, you had 7 months. Isn't that long enough to write up this monster code of a program that must rival NASA's launch codes in complexity evidently?
They have two guys there that are in the authentication business. One guy is on the staff at JSA. He can't browse an internet auction over once in a while and pick out a few items that everyone here seems to be able to see a mile away? If they didn't put PSA precertification or JSA auction LOA, then it wouldn't be as egregious, it would just make them look foolish to throw up an item like that that they would just pull down later.
But to put up precertification or auction LOA designations when it doesn't have one is saying something that isn't so. People bidding need to be able to trust the auction house that their descriptions and authentication designations are true, and not some product of convenience because a computer program seems to be beyond their financial or technological reach.
