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

Posted By: barrysloate

Daniel, your heart is in the right place, and it is good to see that one of the accomplishments of this board is getting collectors to come up with new and innovative ideas to make the hobby better. But some of these will be awfully hard to implement.

First, how do you get all four grading companies to agree with this in unison, when they are in competition and probably don't have a perfect relationship among themselves? Second, how do you get every single collector to agree to do this? Are you suggesting that if a collector chooses not to reholder a card, the grade becomes invalid after one year? There are guys out there with thousands and thousands of graded cards who will now be forced to resubmit all of them. Perhaps these ideas need some refinement. I like the thought that all cards should be examined more closely for alterations, but this may be a bit too ambitious of a plan...But A for effort.
