Auction houses are doing nothing to slow down let alone stop the flow of altered cards selling at auctions. Anything that can get into a holder--who cares if it came from Donald the Doctor or Michael the Magician. They are in the business of auctioning whatever someone tries to pass off on them. Has a little surface crease that make it a 4--lets take it out and make it an 8-disclose this heck no why should we--this is socialism or politically correct bs--we can do what we want to--while we are at it who cares if we run up our bids to the top all price--is someone is stupid enough to give us a top all bid its his tough luck. Auctions are the best place to pass off altered graded material as cards are generally not inspected beforehand and most I presume would not accept a refund if a case could be made after the fact that the card was not legit.

Thank God there are honest people like REA and MEARS who have the best interests of the hobby at heart!
