PSA Set Registry - Is it worth it?

[begsu1013]

not sure if it's mentioned, but it's also nice to have your cards registered so that you know if someone tries to continuously register the same cert that there might be a problem.

same goes as if you purchase a card and try to add it to your registry/inventory and it doesn't get released because another participant has the "same card/cert", ie fake holders and flips.

been on both sides of this fence and can honestly say it's a good safeguard to have in place.

and on another note, you also have that degree of registry cheaters who simply add other's certs just to move up the ranks...so whether you actually register and add a set, it helps protect valid set builders from these guys simply by just adding your cards solely to the "my inventory" part.

sounds like you are in favor of an owner registry....not worried about competing with sets..just having cards registered to guard against multiple copy fake cert numbers.....

bzzzzz. bzzzz. flies are back...again.

i actually do have several sets, however the initial competitional joy resided w/ time and as others have mentioned, some of the earlier cards graded would never receive that grade today. also w/ the crack and resub game so rampant, the pop reports are not really to be taken too seriously.

and already have an "owners registry". i own the cards i have registered on the psa site. as stated, i already get initial warning signs if something's up.

but please entertain us w/ your notion of creating an entirely separate "owners registry" (again), the marketing campaign in place to have people register to your site, your master plan to have it enforced for people to remove their cards, your grand idea of what to do when 2 people try and register the same card, then go reserve the name at your secretary of states office, copyright it w/ the us patents office, cash in your 401K, grab a second mortgage, pawn the title to your honda hatchback and then sit back and reap the rewards!

please lay out your whimsical idea in great depth for me....

now's your chance.
