Default Uncatalogued cards

Posted By: Ray

Isn't this a case of "buy the card, not the holder"? Let me explain... You're saying that the fact that the card isn't catalogued, makes it more valuable, but the second it's made public, it most likely will lose its value? So are you really buying/selling the card... or are you buying/selling the "secret" of the card?

I'm not trying to start an argument here... but in a way, aren't you concealing information from the public to maximize your own gains?

There are a lot of dealers that have been bashed on this forum for doing the same thing, in other ways... selling paper cut-outs as true cards... selling restored cards without disclosing the restoration... selling trimmed cards as unaltered... reprints as the real deal... etc. These dealers purposely withhold information from the public to make more money from them. How is what you are doing any different?

This is not a personal attack, I'm just voicing my opinion.
