Heritage Auction #50020 - Bidding Ends December 5, 6 and 7!

[Rhotchkiss]

Seems like the perfect candidate to test PSA on its guaranty review - high profile and expensive card, with fairly obvious and proven alterations, sold in a high profile auction. Should Heritage have pulled the card? Probably. But this is really on PSA- the expert Authenticator who tells us never to get cheated and boasts a review guaranty.

On a different note, the auction last night had some amazing things IMO and brought some very strong prices. I had to console myself by taking comfort in the fact that whoever won the t206 Speaker Drum paid through the nose for that privilege.

Yes it's on PSA, but if Heritage is taking consignments from known card doctors then it would be on them too IMO.

Heritage is notifying the winner and offering a refund.

The hobby is alive and well after quickly perusing last nights results!

High grade...rare back T206...Saul Goodman!

there is another bulk submission being organized right now on this very board. people who continue to patronize psa deserve any heartache they get. given all we know now, there’s no reason. i saw something in another thread about a “net54 boycott” of pwcc. what a joke. the majority of people in this hobby do not have the discipline to boycott anything. it has always been that way and always will.

I have to wonder how many people have even stepped up their diligence before buying a graded card, with all that's come out. I have the sense, not many.

+1. It's all about the me and the now. Hardly limited to this hobby, though.

They’re hooked like a trailer it’s not going to stop them.

If.
That is the key word.
Looks like they are doing the right thing in this case.
