It’s a joke. AH’s were already getting favorable grades before one of them was owned by the same group that owns PSA. Now… expect Goldin to get lots of clutch grade bumps (on doctored cards) that translate to millions in sales. I bet Turner even lands some of them for his collection, lol. Handing the money to your own asset isn’t really the same as a collector winning the auction, is it?

Yup. Just profiteers bilking an unregulated market, end of the day.

And the band played on.....................

And the people stood in line and handed them their money and waited months for a receipt...............

Why wouldn't you invest in a business or hobby where your target consumers have shown that they are willing to accept almost anything and keep coming back for more?

"Thank you Sir. May I have another?"

Wasn't an auction house once part of Collectors Universe? I believe they were called Superior

The related potential conflict would be grading more strictly for rival AHs that submit.

Exactly. Would steer all expensive material to their own AH.
