Was that the one that called grading companies "smoke detectors without batteries"? VCBC had some good quotes at times.

I don't know for certain why issue #7 of VCBC is so difficult to find, but the story I've heard is that PSA wasn't pleased with the article and bought up the entire remaining stock. Even though I was assistant editor of the magazine, I didn't know everything that was going on.

The pre-internet equivalent of "poofing" a thread?
