I think so, and certainly hope so, in this day and age word will spread.

The current auction prices look like this has had no effect at all.

It will take time to have an effect, but I believe it will.

I can't imagine people would already have bids up to 28 grand on the E98 Cobb knowing all this.

Maybe they just want PSA to take it deeper out of hide.

John, this is in reference to this price of the Cobb?

They say they can pay market price or SMR value. This card is probably shilled by the consignor

We on Net54, often fall into the trap of thinking we are a large piece of the collecting world. I can't tell you how many times I've had people buy tobacco cards from me and I ask if they're a member of Net 54 and they look at me very confused and ask "what?" Hopefully some take my advice and join, but we are a small percentage of collectors to be sure.

EDIT: Fine Peter, say it more succinctly and get in first lol.

100% agree. In the last few years I've been to shows all over the country (St Louis, Kansas City, Chicago, Atlantic City, White Plains NY, Strongsville OH, Seattle, Phoenix, Dallas, etc) as an attendee or dealer. I've probably met 50 or so Net54 members, but countless people who had no idea what I was talking about when I mentioned Net54. Most recently at Leon's Texas show I had conversations with a few advanced collectors that had not heard about the bogus signed T206s because they don't read message boards. It might be tough to get this info out to the masses.
