The fact that you can turn a $2200 card into a 15K card by having the label changed, when the difference between an 8.5 and a 9 is virtually imperceptible, is truly alarming.

Alarming, amazing, ridiculous, appalling, horrifying, dismaying and a few words I cannot think of at this moment.
I am an autograph guy, and we certainly have our problems too, but the card grading and registry sets BS does make me chuckle.
This is like guys comparing their penis size and one shouts MINE IS BIGGER THAN YOURS. Wow, my registry set is better than yours, I fell for the PSA BS, I drank the PSA Kool-Aid, BUT I WON.
