Go BODA!! Keep up the great work and pressure. Clearly it is having some effect. And us collectors are hugely indebted. You guys rock. Sincere thanks

speaking of mastro, all of his supporters will be happy to know that he hosted an outing at the white sox game Tuesday night, the night before the National kicked off.

Absolutely grateful for the vigilance of these collectors. What a difference it was visiting PSA over near the toilets (how appropriate) with their snarky and lying faces. Then going over to the competition, who bent over backwards to accommodate my questions and actually guarantee my cards would be ready by Sunday (they were ready Saturday).

PSA insisted they would mail them if they weren't ready - which I insisted I did not want, this is why I am bringing them all the way in person. PSA demanded I know what my cards would grade and exactly what value. How the hell should I know? That is why graders are paid, right? They kept telling me it will be upcharged. Well, never, ever again until I see jail time for Someone at PSA.

BTW - anyone want to buy my PSA cards? Lol. They have great resale value, I'm told.

I'm not selling mine. I'm just storing them & keeping all the fakes off the market.

I'll just crack my entire collection that is in the GAI plastic slabs...I mean PSA. until the next fad comes around. These cards get cracked out so many times anyway they have overdosed on crack.

They can't be fakes, they're PSA, right? Hahaha. Just asking those die hard PSA supporters to Pony up and buy these better than any other TPG valued cards. (no takers?)

I have no faith in PSA.

They have all the problems and Joe Orlando basically said they can't do anything about it, won't honor their guarantees and the people exposing the fraud are just a bunch of complainers. Addressing the issues didn't even appear to be a concern of his. Their wish. as has it always been, is to hole it blows over rather than address authentication/authentication issues.

I've long known, and been told, that many high grade cards in PSA holders have been altered. Bill Mastro said this directly years back, and Doug Allen implied this. And it's finally come home to roost.

The fact that the very first card is altered, and may have been known to be altered by the graders, and they have not yet directly addressed that, says it all. Based on that card, a question is if their very business model was based on knowingly falsely grading a card?

Uh, if you think this is limited to PSA, you haven’t been paying attention. SGC has actually had some of the highest profile cards in this scandal slip by, and Beckett is probably worst of the 3 as far as pure corruption (see black labels). They’re all part of the problem.

+1, exactly right....
