I'll jump on the bandwagen on this topic. I couldn't agree more!!

The card companies came up with an idea to fleece the public once again by creating the cards with autographs, uniform swatches and bat shards.
Ridiculous idea IMO. And also questionable authenticity in many cases.
But this Leaf thing goes way beyond the crap that the card companies do.
Create your own 1/1 and try to sell it for double what the autographs should really sell for.
Are you kidding me????
People really fall for this crap?
Do these cards really sell on the bay?

+1

why would grading increase the value? we all have eyes and can see the boldness of the autos. grading of the autos is as big of a scam as the custom made 1/1 cards. dont trade one scam for another.

That quote above was about four hours ago. I said a sucker is born every minute. I should have said a scam is born every minute.

If anyone wants to take the time he gave a plus one to exactly what Travis wrote plus agreeing that spending money to get an autograph graded is stupid as well. I guess he forgot how you can hurt a newbie's feelings, his only "crime" was saying something he thought to be true.
Just so you know I dont hate or even dislike you. I just feel sorry for you. Why someone has to go out of there way to hurt someone for just for there own pleasure is a very sick man. By the way. How did you treat Scott F when I said I it is nice haveing someone looking from the outside in. You have no idea what his back ground is yet you thought he had no idea what he was talking about.
I did promise I would not do this . But four hours later the PhD is now Mr Hyde.
I found out from my other friend Richard that I no longer have to see his comments. So my dear Jekyll. dyyn ʼa gʼanẕ tʼákʻs lʼák
