Thanks for sharing. They should get several people filming and asking questions at the same time. Overwhelm them with questions.

Might also be a good idea to inform some of the customers that are milling around there about what is happening in our hobby.

Yes Hi, I'd like to ask you a question about the carpet & easel?

Exactly what I was thinking. We can't talk about the scandal, but I can tell you we use only the finest shag carpets with our displays. That's helpful.

I hear certain lawyers will only walk on the most plush carpet. When I heard there were only hundreds of cards altered I thought of the shark tank Mr. Wonderful saying....when a business is a dud "Your business will make you HUNDREDS of dollars......but it's not worth investing in, I am out!!"

The few times I walked by the PWCC booth there weren't too many people at it.

Now that would have been entertaining -- the Wizard of Oswego trying to convince the Shark Tank folks to invest in his notes or vault or whatever.

Do you think he has a job when he gets back to work on Monday morning?

I can only assume he received a very stern and terse speaking to on Thursday night. I wonder if he is even still at the show or was he given tickets tot he Cubs game and wont be seen until its time to tear down the booth.

Is that Deputy Barney Phif guarding the cards?

I'm assuming this policy of not being recorded is on advice of counsel as, prior to Jeff's involvement, they ran their mouths quite a bit.

Depending on if Chicago is a one or two party consent place you could just record them without them knowing.

I would agree Jeffrey more than likely told them to STFU you morons.

Since he was basically saying that before they paid him I'll go out on a limb and say I'm 99% certain lol.

I think it's two party. Isn't the building also private property?

I'd also like to see the same type of video journalism at the PSA Booth and see watch kind of rhetoric spews out of mouths of the principals at PSA. My guess is that they will, like PWCC, scamper for cover at the sight of a video camera.

By the way, does PSA still host Registry Luncheons at the National? When they did years back, there was a Q & A time. I'd be very surprised if PSA would give the public that same opportunity today.

You would think with all the people screaming bloody murder on the forums that the PWCC booth was going to be like the Israel-Palestine border. Instead, I watch the video and the booth looks quieter than my local library. Go figure.

People are a lot different in person than they are on a message board.

That is a big part of it. I complain about the scum in the hobby all the time but am the nicest person you ever want to meet in person. I will still complain about it but i argue with no one.

Then the first person to start any open complaining will be escorted out of the building.

Then the elephant in the room. Almost every dealer there and every dealer that sells PSA slabs wants it to go away as fast as possible.

Visible security can certainly deter people.

One word comes to mind watching that video: AWKWARD.

Also, I'd love to see the submission history of those cards in the "Vault".
