Somewhere in the thread there was a comment that it would be rare for PSA to downgrade a card when it is sent in to be placed in a "modern/new" slab. If that's the case, then why would anybody give a crap about the age of the slab? The new buyer could submit it and pay the fees if a new slab means so much to them.
All these grading companies have to do is hire some smart hobby analyst (SHYT) that determines the new breed of hobbyist is an investor and then determine how to manipulate that idiot. The SHYT then hires a few E-trolls to post blogs and information about "new slabs" and how they're worth more than old slabs and voila - grading companies have a new revenue stream for re-submissions. The SHYT gets a cut and starts thinking about the next way to have these hobbyist put out more money to the TPGs. Someone should start a thread about when they think this whole thing comes tumbling down. Probably never because the world is full of knuckleheads that will roll over for the next ploy. Is this really a hobby anymore? My hobby is reading these threads that say this is a hobby and wondering what flavor Kool-aid is being distributed these days.
