Another slap in the face to the collecting community.

PSA's clients have every right to expect as close to perfection as possible. Saying we're human and we can never get it right every time does not even consider the frequency that altered cards are being slabbed. Many collectors send them thousands of dollars to have their cards reviewed, and spend a whole lot more than that to purchase high end ones. And they don't even have the decency to admit that they need to do a whole lot better. What a dreadful response.

I could go on and on but I won't.

The best part which you didn't highlight was the invitation to civil discourse. As in, poof?

The above most recent statements from Orlando only embolden the card doctors to continue their acts. They openly set up or walk the floor of every major show with no shame.

Dan, really great post. Hint, hint, hint:

I really think it is worthy of its own new thread, with a sexy and catchy title (like PSA removes old damning articles, or something), so the topic gets more eyeballs (including maybe press), and is not lost in a longer, older thread people may no longer follow.

Just my opinion...
