Tip of the iceberg.....PSA

Posted By: Bill Kasel

I'm certainly not calling out any dealer/seller on this. My PSA trimmed Willis came from James Verill, and he is top notch in my book, and I will certainly purchase from him again. The fact of the matter is, even if the Johnson is ok (which it appears it is), I no longer trust PSA worth a damn. They obviously do not have the staff to properly grade pre-WWI cards. Maybe a few of them are really good, but too many slip by for my liking. I will try to post more about positive things, rather than focusing on the negatives. However it seems that even the most unassuming strings turn into a pi$$ing match between two or three juvenile minded collectors thus ruining the fun of them. "One That Got Away" string and many others. Thanks Scott(s), maybe you should take it off-line.

I love hearing the stories of finds, hits, misses, pains and overall fun that these cards put us through. I also cant get enough of the scans of the low, and the high ticket items.

Thanks everyone for the input and insight. Nine new E95's should be arriving any day now! WHOOO HOOOO!!!! Thanks Wesley!
