A great idea on paper, given the deep baseball card knowledge on this board, but, for the reasons already stated, just too time-consuming and expensive to be viable. How about if the board co-authors, as they see it, some kind of reference tool about the current state of the baseball card market and AH's who live off it, showing all the pitfalls, schemes, shill bidding, crooks and the like.
I, for one, have kept all my cards rejected for trimming, altered or even fake cards, such as a Cobb Wolverine which had me fooled (the pixels were wrong). They would make a nice exhibit.
It is great to toss these ideas around.
