All submitters are equal. Some are more equal than others.

Little wonder that so few have spoken up. Don't bite the hand that feeds you, I guess.

EXACTLY!!!! Well there is also the friend factor. Meaning if you friend is the seller of altered cards then it magically becomes PSAs fault.

I just yesterday talked with a veteran collector who didn't know about the current scandal. I told him about it, and his response was "People were talking about PWCC’s altered graded cards years ago, but people on Net54 who were his customers kept defending him."

That's perhaps the biggest part of the problem.

The indisputable "before and after" images have helped to sway opinion, but most collectors still don't know the extent of the fraud. And many who DO know simply don't care, or are hesitant to acknowledge it. Those who are heavily invested in PSA slabs would rather turn a blind eye or even defend the process... with many still looking to PSA to solve the procedural and ethical issues which plague the TPG industry.

Much like asking your drug dealer to administer addiction counseling.
