Agreed. In those cases, they're collecting money. You know that saying about the love of money and the root of all evil...

To clarify:

Some people in this hobby don't collect cards, they only collect money/cash/profits.

Not accusing anyone here specifically, but my belief is there has been a huge conspiracy of silence in the hobby about fraudsters for exactly this reason. Insiders have known for years who's doing what to cards.

100% true because they have benefited from it or plan to benefit from it too. I have to admit collectors can be just as bad they want to believe their beloved cards are 100% legit and only go up in value so the keep hush.

It’s the don’t bite the hand that feeds you mentality. Even if the hand that’s feeding you is dishonest.
