Ok this is something Ive been wanting to ask about. Ive heard them use this excuse several times before and I just find it to be an easy excuse. My question is this. They have done an expert paper sample on the card right? How exactly does that work? Dont they have to scrap a paper sample off the card to do so? Or remove a piece of paper from the card? Or scratch some off? How does a paper sample work? Or do they just look through a microscop and say yep its 100 years old.?
Trying to wrap my head around the paper experts process.
Sorry if this is a dumb question.

The mistake is that they weren't worried about the card being scratched. It is that the card may be stolen and swapped for a fake.
... or maybe PSA will still their fake and swap it with an authentic card?

What's to keep the auctioneer from running off with it? It was in his possession for a long time. It would be pretty simple to get this card graded at a show without ever leaving the table.

Yeah, but taking it to SGC or PSA would kill the deal.

They are also working on a perpetual motion machine. ....and please don't say it's impossible, unless of course, you are a racist.

OK so Mr. Simon are you insinuating that I made a racial slur?? My comment referencing Sanford & Sons was made in comparison to the two guys as JUNK dealers trying to pass of garbage. I should have imagined you left-wingers have been waiting to jump on someone to cry and pull the"race card". Actually, ole Red Fox had more class than these two parasites.

Things have changed in the 40 years since that show was on TV. In 2013, what you wrote has negative racial connotations. And I wouldn't suggest quoting this guy either. Like I said, times have changed in the past 40 years.

I'm not sure if it was Archie Bunker or Cobb & Edwards who said this:

"The lord may be smilin' on the sheeps, but they still wind up as lamb chops."

The show that included that guy actually helped change things. The over the top character as a caricature of certain attitudes exposed their silliness.

Sadly the spinoff didn't.

And Sanford and son was actually rather funny.

Hey Jason, who ended up with that 52 Mantle? I must have missed the follow up post.

Wow,,, you are touchy,,, I said nothing about race,,I quoted your remark about Obama, gun control and minimum wage, it is obvious you are very, very defensive over something but I don't know what it could be. I did not quote your Sanford and Son remark.

You berate left wingers and liberals in a forum which expressly prohibits political discussion, how about neanderthals and reactionaries? Why not berate them too,,,didn't all those years of watching fair and balanced have any affect on you,,, if the racial shoe fits then put it on Jason.
And you voted for a loser, maybe that is what is so upsetting to you.
This is not Archie Bunker's America anymore.

Richard, haven't you seen the Geico commercials? Neanderthals are humans too...sort of. I nearly cried watching the Scrabble game.

Were you referring to the cuddly animal or Redd Foxx the actor and comedian.
