Yes this has been noted many times, he can't even get the vocabulary right. Or it's deliberate misuse of the word, because conservation sounds so benign and well intentioned.

LOL. If you have a few minutes check out some of the links to Blowout. Viewed in that context, it's all .... in my opinion ... disingenuous as hell.

A minute?! Try several hours! The evidence is mounting. And great wording- disingenuous as hell

What is really sickening is all the money he manages to keep on making on Ebay despite obvious bad doings, disregarding warnings and threats from other people, and he just keeps laughing all the way to the bank. First the bid shilling and now this latest bull shit.

Pete- My honest opinion is this, I think the major graders are corrupt to some degree (Not just PSA), and I get sick and tired of seeing T206s graded 8's that absolutely look like 6's...I've said this before, I'll say it again, there are two heavy hitters on Ebay that get grades that are absolutely baffling...I think this also exists with SGC and I have also seen this as well. This is why all of this matters.....Most people buy the HOLDERS and not the card, I don't. If you take a common PSA 6 vs. a PSA 8, you are talking about $250 vs. $2500-3000....This is a hobby that is so easy to corrupt....And people it happens, believe me....

I agree in no name calling and all that, and Net54 can sometimes get harsh.

However when someone posts (paraphrase) the reasoning that "Altered cards are worth less than unaltered cards, thus there is no incentive to sneak altered cards past graders," it is not a matter of poll or chatboard debate or number supportive PMs as to whether that statement is illogical. It just is.
