I have brought up the question of -

What do many of these high end collectors do...who purchased cards now deemed trimmed/ altered....they have been ripped off for a lot of money..

.Does that collector do the " ethical " thing ,and when he's ready to sell...makes it known ?....or the " unethical" thing..and break the card out of the holder...and try to sell it one day " pretending" he knows nothing about a trim or alter ?.... That decision could cost him thousands of dollars in loses

As long as there is fraud, I think it should be talked about and brought into the open, as much as possible.



and, as shown before, the plate specimens for Lipset's Encyclopedia...these aren't fraudulent.

I used to think like that but I have been attacked way too many times for calling out someones friend or business partner. It just isn't worth the hassle to me anymore. Even on here I have seen one member sell another member an altered card and then tell the buyer too bad. Because the seller was a popular member there was nothing but crickets when the buyer openly complained about it. I get it that that is how it works in the real world so I have done my best to quit complaining about it.
