For those who are familiar with YouTube....
Is the hiding of comments a new phenomenon? And is this something that's done by YouTube or by the Content Creator? I do not recall seeing this happen in the past. My most recent encounter with this matter is a Sports Card Clubhouse video in which they attempt to cover the incident in which Dr. Beckett and another high-end collector (Patrick Ryan) admit to and condone shill bidding practices. Here's a link to the video, of which 13 of the 16 comments were deleted at the time of this writing.... https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CpSX4XO3awM Eager to know the explanation.... thanks!

Correct - comments can always be turned off.

Why would YouTube delete all of those comments when they have no vested interest in the matter? Thanks for bringing this up, says a lot.

Edit: I had asked the same question of the YouTube Content Creator, and this was his response... @SportsCardClubhouse 1 hour ago This is a fantastic question. I think something is broken with YouTube because I’m seeing the same problem on my primary channel. We’re not able to see most of the comments. So I think it might actually be something new that YouTube has enacted.

Unless I somehow missed it, the bigger question here is why is there not already a thread on this video's topic?

There was an issue with YouTube comments Friday night that made most comments invisible, even to the creators. The comments finally started showing up to us around 9 or 10pm ET, when they were also visible to everyone else. |

Nice job having John on your show to discuss the shill bidding topic. Any updates from Dr. Beckett's side of things? |

Nice video. Ugh on shill bidding. Reminds me of about 17 yrs ago all over again.

This is hilarious as caring about shill bidding is as silly as caring about altered cards in PSA slabs. It is a waste of time and energy as most sellers shill their cards and most cards in PSA slabs have had work done to them.
My favorite excuses are soaking is not altering and it isn't shill bidding as long as I pay the winning bid. ![]() ![]() ![]()

How about a lie detector test for intent? 😊

Two more points that I want to mention:
1. The perception that if I rarely bid on any AH items and/or rarely consign any items to an AH and/or rarely bid on any eBay auctions, then shill bidding really does not affect me. Absolutely incorrect, the market price manipulation caused by shill bidding affects everyone who buys and sells sports cards. 2. The perception that only the 5, 6 and 7 figure items would be involved in shill bidding is also incorrect. As stated in the AH terms and conditions, if the consignor of a $9K card wants to ensure that he doesn’t lose a good chunk of their investment, they can either ask the AH to bid on their item up to a certain amount or, if not agreeable to the AH, they can then bid themselves or have someone else bid on it. There is no cutoff at any monetary level in the AH terms and conditions so no reason that every AH consignor can’t have the same “privileges” as the most affluent consignors. The rules are no different for those with a lot of money and a lot of high end cards than they are for everyone else. We all have our own inner circle of friends that can look out for each other and protect our investment. |
