I didn't say I disagree with the comments that made me laugh, but then again I was one of the scoffers the first time around so don't look to me for intelligence!

I don't see the similarity at all. When TPG came in it was the wild west out there. Not that TPG was a perfect solution but it has helped enormously and stabilized an industry that would have been a nightmare without it especially as it has moved online. What good is the purple label going to accomplish that is remotely analogous?
The arguments against TPG were mostly made by people who were benefiting from the corrupt system of grading their own cards. Again, not analogous to the arguments against this (IMO) worthless layer of opinion. Sure, at some 50,000 foot level the arguments were similar -- we don't need this -- I'll grant you that.

The main concern I would have is:
1) what level of insurance does this company have? 2) why pay $5 a card when the cost to review cards is similar from PSA, and they can actually award you a higher grade?
