A third party is impartial. They have no vested interest. Third party authentication could always been improved upon. No doubt. But I can't see how people can say that there is no place for TPA's in the hobby. The current TPA's may not be getting it done but I still think there needs to be a TPA.

They are not impartial, and they do have a vested interest: obtaining and keeping an auction house gig. That's where the money is.
