I see that the reporter apparently wrote this piece on July 18th. However, it does appear in TODAY'S (July 22nd) Wash. Post. Sorry! As my wife frequently reminds me, "no good deed goes unpunished."

My local newspaper, Seattle Times, has some stories go online a couple of days before they appear in print.

To the OP for letting every board member get wind of this. They want me to remove my ad blocker to read the article. But I can see a nice photo shot of one of the up and coming hobby participants. Sad it is that that young man is facing this kind of "Welcome to the hobby" message. How can I read the full piece?

he has the opportunity to post on this board if it isn't true, as other lawyers have done. if it is, there may be privilege/confidentiality issues. a number of knowledgeable people believe it is true, but i imagine things will become more clear over time. it would be nice if that could happen now.

you don't see him commenting here anymore do you? Probably not a joke.... other than on us, the collectors.

That Brent Mastro is SMART. Good luck on your case Calvindog!

You will may never see a crazy Investor run up in this Industry again like we seen in 2015.....that ship has sailed....Big Money Investors don’t like uncertainty.......how can they be confident in PSA Slabbed Cards

Idk time will tell.....PSA remaining silent is sickening although not unexpected

I am a tax guy. Lets say someone brings in their paperwork/records to get their taxes done. It is my job to get it right - by the law. If what the client brings me looks suspect or fraudulent, I explain to the client the situation, why I think it may not be correct, the ramifications, and offer to help get it right ... or show them the door. There is no leeway. The IRS can fine me, even revoke my license, if found I fraudulently did a return.

That said, the analogy is PSA is me, the preparer. If PSA lets loose a fraudulent card, they are to blame. They are the professionals who do this for a living. There should be legal consequence for PSA. PSA should be held more accountable than any other entity in this whole mess.

Right or wrong - my 2 cents.

For the record, I am not a lawyer and am not representing PWCC.

"I noticed that you didn't say you are not representing Moser."

I like a little mystery. I also didn't say I'm not dating Charlize Theron.

Default The rich keep getting richer

I love the info that jeffrey has provided. He basically told us Brent will not be going to jail and that we should be happy and grateful that PWCC is refunding obvious trimmed and altered cards and those with only "MINOR" alterations are going on the back burner. I must say. You are representing your client well. Just seems a little self serving to me. Thank You BLOWOUT for your great work. at least you didn't sell your soul or integrity to represent a crook.

Good third post without your name listed.

Good understanding of how the Sixth Amendment works.

And good reading comprehension skills — you’re able to read things that have never been said or written.

Absolutely freaking brilliant move by Brent and Betsy. Silence the criticism coming from your biggest critic by hiring him. LOL. Mastro and Allen really blew that one.
