Read the article and think they it was a little harsh on PSA. Think
Joe did the right thing by getting the cards off the market and
paying that person his money back.

Grading is not perfect and it involves humans that are going to
make errors. Like it is always said here "buy the card and not the
holder".

Until we come up with a perfect solution which may be a digital
grading system we are going to have errors. And even then it
wont be full proof.

Seems like the consignor knew he was busted and did not even bother.

There was a follow up blog post by Peter Nash claiming Gerry Schwartz was the ebay buyer.

Default "House of Cards"

Sounds like there is the making of a great book detailing the fraud in our wonderful hobby.

Great title for it: House of Cards!
