Default One idea, likely heavily flawed, for fixing some of the ills in our hobby

Mr. McGuire: I want to say one word to you. Just one word.
Benjamin: Yes, sir.
Mr. McGuire: Are you listening?
Benjamin: Yes, I am.
Mr. McGuire: Plastics.


Obviously, all slabbed cards should be reslabbed by a reslabbing company that slabs the slab, ie double slabbing, and they insure the reslabbed card to be what it is, and using UV proof material, kinda like what the robot in Day the Earth Stood Still was encased in, and that way the reslabber's population reports would be good because folks like me couldn't bust 'em out.

So I think the entire line of this is nutz, as I think slabbing is in the first place. Best line I read in this mess was about how altered cards that are in slabs and offered as unaltered genuines are one of the biggest problems of the hobby. I agree, and it is a big problem for folks that collect slabs. It is not a problem for me. Folks need to learn what they're collecting.
