Update: https://www.sportscollectorsdaily.co...overed-arrest/
Besides the glamour shot of the perp, the two still missing cards have now been identified: PSA 8 1941 Play Ball Ted Williams (PSA Cert #05159693) ![]() PSA 5 1909 T204 Ramly Walter Johnson (PSA Cert #90586922) ![]() Hope they recover these remaining two, especially the Ramly WaJo. |

There was a time grading was not tethered to the ultramodern perfect (or altered) card and you didn't need to alter a vintage card to get an 8.

Right now the perp's face is matching his hands after being caught red-handed with the graded card loot.

I'd say today, the Williams might get a NM 7 and the Johnson a 4 VG-EX at best.

Not to beat them up because those are examples of grading at that time but the Williams might be a 6 today and yeah the Johnson is closer to VG and that VG-EX.

Maybe that's what they would get today but they've become way too harsh. They overgraded years ago and now they undergrade so my assessments are right in the middle.

Damn, Darren, I want one of those! But I think you should # to 54, one for each card this assclown stole.
I see that the perp is a young, fat, slovenly white guy...in other words, a typical card show attendee.

Highly intelligent move, asking a friend to hang onto them. Like the police would never think of that.

Well I guess it depends on perspective. I've been 27 a couple of times, so 27 seems young to me.

It appears some (all?) of the cert numbers have been deactivated on the PSA registry. Anyone have experience with what may happen next in that regard?

If you are referring to the 54 cards that had been stolen and now recovered, I think it would be obvious that PSA would activate the certs again.

This board has a lot of answers...I will give ya that but I see so many posts here with people coming here as their first stop to ask a question to people who might or might not have experience in the particular area. Heck you will get opinions so if that is all you are seeking then, have at it.
I guess I have become way too practical. I want the right answer to my questions and nothing against anyone here but my first stop will be with the person or company who is directly involved.

woah, were you all making fun of me there? awesome community. I purchased one of the cards that was stolen and recovered and now deactivated. My only experience with deactivated cards has been ones later deemed as fake. I didn’t realize it was just a switch PSA could turn just back on. Appreciate the intel and glad you have more posts than me, up to 2!

Well, I was aware of net54 for years from a distance and stumbled onto this thread when looking for information about the theft. I kept abreast by reading all 900 posts (many of which felt like old lawyers trying to prove who’s smarter), and frankly found all of the information I needed. Then I go to check the pop on the cards they found, only to annoyingly see them deactivated. I asked a simple (maybe naive to some) question in here and was met by a variety of sarcasm. Obviously I could ask PSA, but I’m also bound to get a faster (and probably as accurate) answer here. All good, enjoy your next 30,000 posts…I’m probably done at 3.
p.s. don’t be so quick to alienate…your family will need people to buy all this stuff when you kick the bucket. |

Sounds like you have purchased fake cards or are at least familiar with that reality in the hobby, it would seem like common sense to resolve the cert issue before you send anyone money. And I am taking my cards with me.

If people will buy from and defend anything done by convicted fraudsters, they will be happy to buy from my heirs regardless of whether or not they hate me for winning/losing in a chat board scrap 40 years ago. It's fine.

What is clearly in very short supply in the hobby are morals, ethics, conviction and a backbone...big wallets are not an issue.
