This is the part where a few members jump on the band wagon and beg you not to go because of mean ol' Wonka or Evil Jeff Lichtman. Then later slam you for laughs...ahh the internet.

Maybe my post was a little to harsh. There are 2 things that bother me:

1) Same members posting over and over about the past problems of a couple of auctions houses.. We all get it, don't need to post the same thing over and over.

2) When a card is posted from an auction or a member posts the card. I don't think you can tell from a scan in most cases. But, members jump on the band wagon and can't wait to deem the card a fake, trimmed or whatever. Why not let the person know or the auction site to maybe get it checked out by someone in person. In all fairness sometimes they are right in their evaluation, but it is possible that some deals and auctions are harmed by these quick responses.

Just my thoughts

Joe

I have been around the chat board for a long time and my impression is that it is less confrontational than it used to be. Some of those knock down drag outs used to be fun to watch.
As for coming down too hard on auction houses, I used to believe this was true. I was wrong. What Jeff and others like him have done has helped, and will continue to help, the hobby. The sad part is, while things may be better than they once were, there are still problems with many of the bigger players. Hopefully, people will continue to shine the light on problems and more of the bad actors will be shown the door.

As soon as the couple of auction houses stop committing fraud I'm certain the posts will stop. Not until then.
