He made millions playing in the NFL and made a few mill selling that Mantle - why would he need to trim cards? Did he blow all his money away or something? Oh, and it looks like he is cracking jokes on BO. This whole thing is just messed up.

Reference my post yesterday in the sister thread about this (a couple years ago, he bought 10 '86 fleer basketball packs for $2 k each from Vintage Breaks)

So if he did that kind of big $ highly negative EV stuff often enough, the money would disappear fairly quick

http://www.net54baseball.com/showthread.php?p=1185990

AND found this thread (Thanks to BO) on the 700K 68 Ryan for sale in the PWCC fake VAULT

Look who made the last comment about this card when it was discussed here in 2014. You read that right, 2014. It's our own Evan Mathis, who claimed to be the owner of the card.

Please add another 700K to my 1-billion fraud estimate.

Over 4 million in trimmed cards outed just today. The level of this fraud is truly astounding but at least we know what's been going on now. Anyone else with their subs, pops, reviews, flips, and Registry are complete blithering IDIOTs for continuing on with these criminals. That's almost as funny as the scam itself.

Was Evan the guy who sold the PSA9 or 10 '52 Topps Mantle in Heritage?

PSA provides direct grader access to old bald guys with fanny packs. Imagine the pull an All Pro lineman had with Joe and his guys.

Yes, but that card was seriously legit. He bought it as a 9, and it was graded many many years ago.

Having bought it many years ago means nothing. Just because the trimming scandal/fraud was exposed in 2019 doesn't mean it hasn't been happening for many years. PSA was no better back then than they are now. It's just come to light as of more recently, thanks to BODA.

How do you know that he made a “few mill” on his 1952 Topps Mantle. Do you know how much he paid for it?
