PSA might consider expanding the webpage Matt posted to include information about fake flips, examples of what to look for in terms of fonts and spacing, etc. When this first became an issue it was relatively easy to spot fakes by their crappy looking fonts but it seems the scammers are getting better. And with the many generations of PSA flips, with varying fonts and alignments, the fakes are not always immediately obvious, to me anyhow.

I agree with you Peter..I called SCG about a Ruth I had..He said the reason they didn't put cert numbers out there was fraud. You won't see this with Beckett holder, too strong...I want my 52 high commons raw. So, I broke a PSA Bob Chipman out. it was easy..The case still looks perfect..

I'm seriously considering going completely raw on my 52 highs..So I may be selling a few PSA 3's 4's and 5's..Ones I don't want to crack out and put in an album..
The only other way is to cross everyhthing to Beckett..I'm done with PSA..
