Fun facts...you guys realize there are over 10,000 members on Net54 and hey guess what? I see the same handful of guys talking about the same thing on multiple threads. It’s very possible the other 9,990 members have differing opinions. So where is this going to lead us...I’ll give 9,990 : 1 odds that someone starts another thread related to the same topic.

Take a vacation and enjoy the rest of your holiday weekend!

Martin, you’re aware that trying to stop discussion about Brent’s fraud wouldn’t stop a criminal investigation, right? Just checking.

From what I’ve heard Jeffrey, you’re the one who needs to be investigated. I’d chill out on casting stones from your glass house. I know what you did and you’re a total piece of garbage. I’m not going to expose it here because it’s not my issue but you are a dispicable human and deserve to spend the rest of your days in a box.

Lol! To be honest I won’t say anything I don’t know to be 100% fact. Too bad the rest of the internet doesn’t follow that code.

Most of us who belong to Net54 are content with our low grade raw T206's and T213's. My guess is that there are only a few dozen people on this forum who give a rat's ass about a trimmed $5000 Giannis rookie.

Thats a good point. Ive been collecting since the mid 70’s...ive never been too condition sensitive in my collecting...sure i like a crease free card with decent centering. This is where my condition discrimination ends. My meager collection brings me happiness and wont be much affected by a grading scandal. Im a manchild of principles...i have a high moral compass. Thieves/crooks should be
Punished if/when caught. This is where i stand.

Hopefully, more people here care about the VG 3 Green Ruth, Psa 1.5 to 2
T227 Cobb, and the Red T206 Cobb that went from 1.5 to 3 that have been
shown as possibly bad on blowout. These are just a few I found this morning.

Exactly. We can claim that it's only rich assholes who care about altered cards here but the low grade ones are getting altered as well. The fraud affects the entire hobby, like it or not.

I want to add this because everyone seems to be singling out PSA. I think this activity also goes on with SGC.....

He’s the Milwaukee Bucks 1st team All-NBA Forward and MVP frontrunner. Modern basketball, his rookies included, are some of the hottest cards on the planet.

Oh, I see. I'm sure he, Lew and the Big O make a very formidable "Big Three".

That's a weird one.

Ordinarily I'd say they aren't the same card, as the 6 is tighter to the holder top and bottom but thinner side to side.

But the fibers/print marks on the back are exactly identical.

All I can think of is that the holders are slightly different sizes on the inside.

What exactly is the "differing opinion" from the "handful of guys talking about the same thing?" Fraud is a good thing?

Yes! What you have in quotes is exactly why I decided to come back here. I agree with the majority of guys here. Except I'm a chick. So make that a handful of guys and one chick. Though I do believe it is important to have an open platform to share differing opinions.

I've been aboard! Honestly I stopped signing in a few years ago because I felt a bit ganged up on. I love pre-war cards just as much as everyone else here but only got into it in the last ten years or so and I'm in my mid 30's. I think that RP was a set up!
