Posting scans incl. PSA certification #'s?

You can find a number anywhere, even on the PSA website.

How many people have a gallery for their collection?

It's worrying that dropping a pebble in a river will redirect the current...nothing will help prevent fraud other than PSA changing things and at minimum making a better slab.

Do you not like their newest slabs. I have not tried cracking one so don't have an opinion of them. The old ones could easily be cracked and resealed with little no no evidence, they sucked for security.

No, it seems like too little.

I do not think that resealing is as scary as straight up having molds made in China, which I believe is happening. I would like a case more expensive to create like Becketts instead of the budget slabs Psa and SGC use. Also I have an idea they can have for free that I think would be revolutionary.

I want them to add QR codes to replace the UPC. These can be easily scanned by a smart phone and those codes would show a picture of the graded card on your phone for comparison. Winner.

No different than typing in a cert number - except neither one will work since they don't scan cards that they grade.

I am not sure how much collectors will pay for additional security? That being said, maybe at a certain level the grading should come with additional security. WIth the cost of grading, especially at the highest levels you would think the cost could be absorbed.

Just easier and leaves room for addition. But yes, they need to start with a photo library or it's moot.
