This isn't about buying the card, not the holder. If you're happy with the card but hate the holder crack it open and keep it raw or slab it with someone else. But if you're a submitter, why shouldn't your opinion matter?

I'm going to say my peace. It is not directed to anyone. But it is what it is. There are collectors that will buy cards from known felons that run auction houses because they have to have it. There are collectors that will buy altered cards just cause the grade is there. They will buy from auctions that are shilled cause of the obsession. They will buy these SGC cards in these flips and safely stash them in their collections. They may bitch, but they will buy. So all this ado is a mute point because nothing will stop them if they want it bad enough. And trust me, they do. And some of those collectors are here. And they wanted SGC to consult with them first? Seriously? Joe Brennan |

1,000 posts later they couldn't decide on a date and time for dinner. You think they'd agree on a flip?

First of all, there does seem to be a consensus on a flip here, but there's even more of a consensus on the fact that the current one is no good.
Second, if you want inane, compare your reference to a thread some years ago, among collectors of all types including Barry Sloate, who as I recall has little to no direct interest in graded cards, about the logistics of when and where to meet for dinner in NYC to this one about the manner in which a grading company conducts its business. That is inane. We get your point, as inartfully and repetitively as it has been made. Feel free to keep poking-- I don't give twodeuces.
