Yup. I have been plugging through the back run I bought a couple months ago and serendipitously began issue #23 last night. It has an article by Keith Olbermann about a grading gone terribly wrong titled "Slab This!!" and is as relevant today as it was in 2000 when it was published. I leave with you with the last paragraph.

"There is only one solution, and that is to presume that every card sealed in a plastic container has been altered, and, however innocently, pronounced authentic and original, nonetheless. In short, don't buy a slabbed card. Ever. Ever."
