Proof that the market value for PSA and 'conserved' cards have dropped

I am a huge proponent of PSA removing all the known altered cert numbers so people are forced into returning them, but obviously, PSA doesn't think this is in their best interests at this time.

Thanks for clarifying, John...

That's a bit of a relief, I suppose. Cannot imagine that all 25 of those people would actually be content with the situation.

Yes. If PSA removed the serial numbers, that would be an excellent event.

The other big event would be if eBay banned PWCC.

Though it's also an excellent event if Registry people are returning those cards. That's a statement. The Registry is sacred cow of PSAdom.
