Default psa crappy site

I was never a fan of PSA before the scandal, and I'm even more weary now.

For what I collect, historically, PSA are one of the most, if not THE most incompetent grader / researchers in the hobby.

I used to keep a computer file on all the mislabeled, mistakes PSA distributed to the collecting world. Its soon became abundant in my collecting circles that PSA was very unreliable. So we agreed to shut them out. They are not familiar with the materials being submitted, but even worse, didn't do simple google to find out. (I found the cards and sets in less than 5 minutes online)

Needless to say, my interest is not financial, so I will not speak of which company is a better investment except that if you are buying PSA cards that are counterfeit or even worse, fantasy cards, it's your mistake. Caviat Emptor.


I'm playing it safe as PSA has a good possibility of becoming worthless property (yes, I know they have die hard supporters, but so did Hitler and Stalin.) I'm selling off my PSA to those die hard supporters. Yes, I'm profiting from their zeal.

I won't be stuck with tarnished goods.

I'll also be glad to share my finding to anyone who comes to the National. (ask for booth and contact through pm)

Happy hunting
