Barry,

If you will volunteer to be president of the newly formed collectors association I will be vp. I think your main point at our collectors dinner was that we just need to rely on the grading services to get better. What Kevin and others seem to say is that more is getting through--
Compared with six months ago or whatever it was, the evidence is even more powerful that the hobby needs some kind of collectors association and that more needs to be done to combat the dealers/auction houses who alter/restore cards and strengthen the grading companies capabilities in fighting this.
I read your posts--I can tell you are not enjoying the hobby anymore and are incredibly frustrated--

Jim
