ebay finds that PWCC engaged in shill bidding?

[Exhibitman]

What I am waiting for is for PSA to remove all PWCC results from its database of auction prices. Their crap is just so fraudulent. I was tracking the PSA 9 Mayweather RC and found that PWCC 'sold' the same exact card (by cert #) every two months like clockwork, and for vastly different prices. Do they really expect me to believe that a guy who bought the card for over $11K decided to sell it for under $6K in sixty days? Yeah and I have a bridge for sale too, really nice, goes from Brooklyn to Manhattan.

Boom exactly I mentioned the same for VCP to hopefully remove Pwcc from their databases.

Same thing happens with Probstein123, 13k one month, next month same cert number sells for 7k. Lost half its value in a month. Funny how that happens.

So true. The manipulation is real

I sit and think back it’s really sad all the manipulation that has occurred. The even more depressing thing is people are still worshiping at the PWCC alter.


A fool and their money are soon parted.

Totally agree with the manipulation. While happy with the cards I have purchased over the years from PWCC, I will never bid on one of their auctions again.

"Market price" has changed drastically over the past 18 months or so...with all the new "collector/investors" looking to "acquire assets" that they can "flip quickly" based on "current comps."

Things were a bit simpler when people just collected cards.

Has anyone ever thought that EBAY also stands to benefit by taking back market share as well as getting full % margins from sales that PWCC had already negotiated a fixed rate commission on.

More sellers cards migrate back onto the EBAY platform while tainting PWCC's reputation all in one neat email?

Either way, both platforms have effectively driven up transactional costs for the collector

On a related note, for those despairing due to the length of the investigation, I don't think the FBI has given up on the hobby:
