What really is played out is the whole negative aspect of constantly talking about the FBI,Mastro,card trimming,altering and so forth. Also please note Barry Goat that you implied dick was going to sell his product and i see you have failed to mention that now, my point is everytime a subject comes up then the piling on starts and rumors start.
In regards to the FBI investigation who cares? I mean in a world where Bernie Madoff can scam close to 50 billion dollars and Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac can cripple the country with intimidating tactics the feds are busy trying to figure out baseball cards and who is corrupt in the hobby. If the feds want to do something then i hope they read this next thought.
How about get both parties in regards to the Honus Wagner card in the last transaction that bought and sold the card, also get PSA's best grader-SGC's best grader and an independent party who is a Mike Baker type and crack the Wagner and see if it has been trimmed. That is when the fun will start and the hobby may turn around a bit because that will be major news and the card trimmers will raise a eyebrow and probably watch their step from then on out.
In regards to schill bidding i have one word....BBBBBOOOORRRRIINNNGGGG! Every auction house i have gone into large or small has schill bidding of some sort hell even Sotheby's went down in regards to schill bidding so if you want honesty then start collecting pez collectors instead of high end ball cards because it comes with territory.
