Compromised TPG holders

[BRoberts]

I assume you don’t have the holders in hand. If that is the case, in my opinion this is an irresponsible post. Are you just going off photos? To cast doubt on SGC holders when you have little solid evidence isn’t fair to SGC. How would you feel about a thread that asks if anyone has heard anything about shill bidding in Birmingham Auctions? You could have handled this in a more professional manner, in my opinion.

I'm asking a question, not even remotely making an accusation. I need information and this group is one of the places I turn to because there are many people here who have their ear to the ground.

Even re-reading my initial post I don't know how you can take it as a slight against SGC.

As far as your "walk a mile in their shoes" type question. Go ahead and ask. I have nothing to hide, and if there are concerns I would be happy to address them. As a business owner if there's a concern about my "product" I welcome the chance to address those concerns. If you accuse me I might come out a little hot, but if you ask an honest question I'm happy to engage. I would've approached SGC directly but pretty much everyone I talked to said they can't get any communications out of SGC right now. Hence a public question.

So you did not even attempt to reach out to SGC simply because you “heard” other people were unsuccessful in their attempts to contact them? Instead, you thought it was better to link SGC with possibly compromised holders in a public post? I hope you use better judgement in other areas of your business. If I were you, I would be hoping SGC management is so busy they will not see this thread.

I guess we're different, frankly I HOPE they see this thread. I have tens of thousands of dollars in SGC cards in my current auction. It's not like I am rooting against them or anything weird, and every grading company has had problems with unscrupulous people counterfeiting or doctoring their products. Nobody (that I know of) accused the companies of wrong doing, just as I am not accusing SGC of anything. And again I am asking a question not "linking" them with anything.
