Does anyone know the origin of that idea that grading companies will steal the card/coin/stamp and replace it with a common one or reprint?

I have to think it happened at some point in the past, but don't remember ever hearing about it as an actual event*

*being different from the occasional losing of a submission that happens.

I have not heard of that happening specifically, but perhaps others have. I have heard many instances of the TPG dinging corners, creating creases and staining cards' surfaces. Not sure they've ever fessed up to it voluntarily with their submitters. But I have heard a number of instances where the submitter noticed it, filed a complaint, and got some type of restitution.

I know that doesn't answer your specific question, but is somewhat related in concept.

I know of at least two instances where PSA reached out and told a submitter that they damaged a card.

Am I the only one who thinks they might be real? If not, they're decent fakes

I've handled thousands (?) and I think they may be real as well. Horrible pictures, but they don't jump out as obvious reprints

How many of the Thousands of t206's that you handled had modern typset letters and numbers printed on them like these? Do you have any T206's that YOU have decided are real with these types of back marks in your collection? If you do would appreciate you sharing. We might all learn something.

Are we sure the "modern typset letters and numbers" are printed on the card? I couldn't tell because of the (low) quality of the images.

Markings, writing, and stamps can be applied to any card, whether its genuine or counterfeit.

Buddy it was enough 2 weeks ago. How many fake / reprint cards do you feel the need to post? With your last post (with the Wagner with the back damage where the word reprint was printed, it is crystal clear you know what your doing. Great, Good for you mister Scam artist man. Thank you for reminding all of us (me included) that folks like you are ready and willing to take every red cent you can if we drop our guard for even a second.
