Deja vu all over again
Good article and I'm glad the issue is becoming a widespread news story - although it's actually an old, ongoing problem with new evidence.
One part of the article that was newsworthy to me was the following statement: The scandal started after a pair of online collectors began identifying and documenting cards that were allegedly improperly modified. They’ve identified 316 such cards, retouched by nearly a dozen “card doctors,” which sold for a combined $1.4 million. I'm curious who these alleged dozen doctors are? Only one was alleged in the article by name. (Although I'm very sure there's far more than a dozen involved).
