Wut? This sounds like WIWAG. This wasn't Copperfield's MO I don't think.
McNeil and his co-conspirators allegedly passed the fake cards off as real ones by using actual tamper-resistant cases “obtained” from Company-1, as well as Company-1 logos and grading labels. I thought he was either resealing slabs or had slabs made for him overseas. I recall a debate here between Evan Mathis and Michael Wentz as to which it was.
