LOL Gary back in the spotlight. The list of specifically outed cards gets longer and longer, and unfortunately we know what that means for the real list of altered cards.

What's interesting is the time line of some of those cards. Some cards were purchased in 2007 and didn't reappear as altered until 2016 or 2017. I suppose it's an issue of too many cards to doctor with too little time.

Or they purposely waited that long, so people would forget the original sale. You have to be awfully discrete when you fraudulently sell an altered card for $84,000.00, under the premise of being NRMT.

I wonder if anyone has actually tallied up the "dollar profits" from these ill-gotten gains? And what would that total number be, derived from the thousands of number-graded cards that we've seen? (keeping in mind that only a small percentage can be accessed/researched using the internet)

Whatever that number is, it absolutely dwarfs the extent of crimes committed by Mastro & Co.

At this point the history of the card over the last 18 years is unknown, so the return may not have accrued to one person.

It takes some giant "berries" to doctor some of these already high-end cards. I cant imagine taking a risk on a PSA 8 Gehrig.

Perhaps one of Heritage's friends will contact them so they can do nothing about it.
