Careful Friends, I don't like this Nodgrass

It's great to have honest guys like yourself watching out for the rest of us.

But Dan, PSA authenticated it as a Nodgrass.

I agree with Dan.
Definitely looks suspect because none of the initial �S� is showing.
Not like any of the real Nodgrass cards I�ve owned.
Steer clear of this one.

So you're saying that the people here know more than PSA? How could that be? They don't want us to get cheated, so you must be wrong. This Nodgrass is good.

Agreed Dan. I used to own one, had part of the "S".

From what I heard on an elevator at the Embassy Suites, when at the National this year, is that we are troublemakers and hot heads.

Nice catch Dan!

What a beautiful card in general. The snarl, the colors, etc.

I would personally give the nod to my Snods.

At this point, where is the indication that PSA's opinion is worth trusting? I don't trust them, why should you? Because they're an authority...an authority whose under investigation by the FBI is all you should know to ask questions of PSA. Personally I dont put too much faith in them, or Beckett and certainly not SGC.

If collectors only did their homework on grading this stuff and stopped being such nickel mercenaries, perhaps we wouldn't need companies like PSA, Beckett or SGC. Even Burdick, Lionel Carter and Buck Barker knew that there had to be a value placed on these cards, but they cautioned against high values which they believed could destroy the Hobby. I cant disagree that their assessment. I believe there are a lot of inflated pricing going on and that SMR and PSA should be 100% separated because it appears to be a conflict of interest.

I�m with you 100% and was joking about PSA being the ultimate authority. If you check just a few of my other posts, you�ll see we view it the same. PSAs credibility has taken a nosedive. I thought I could get by without the sarcasm emoji after railing against them so many times now.

That said... this Nodgrass is just another of their many disgraces.

This Crapola is all being covered up and "TAKEN CARE OF" Behind the scenes. Follow the money. I don't see the buys/sales dropping, either real/fake manipulated back in the safe sales. The most corrupt hobby out there.
