Dan I've talked to some of those people too, and I think Paul Simon said it best: A man hears what he wants to hear, and disregards the rest. And what these folks seem to want are extremely nice looking cards that have the appearance of legitimacy, and that enable them to see their names in the top tiers of the set registry. Whether some of the cards might have had some help seems to be beside the point.
