PSA has always been about profits first, not protection first however that is abundantly clear that some collectors are not able to see that.
They had no choice but to change to the existing holder to made it more difficult for them to be opened and resealed. They had no choice but to upgrade the flip with more security features so that they will be harder to reproduce them.
I am not sure how this prevents the fella in Mexico (or anyone else) from continuing to do what he is doing. As long as cards with previous versions of flips are in circulation it is a green light for this fraud to continue.
