Mine would be, are they committed to not dealing with known and suspected card doctors. I suspect very few would pass that test.

Which ones do you think would pass it?

I haven't participated in one of their auctions since they were located in San Luis Opisbo, CA. After they re-located to OR., the wheels came off the cart and the whole operation seemed to turn into a shit show. Maybe expansion wasn't their best decision.

You can't call SGC any more, right? People don't seem to mind that. So what's the big deal?

PWCC is like the bat-shit-crazy ex-girlfriend of the hobby. Anyone who keeps going back to her at this point deserves all the heartache they get.

Conor, I cannot disagree, but with their backers, thought I would give it a shot. Wish I hadn't.

PWCC after their "kicked off EBay" scandal was awesome for a few auctions. Between the people scared of dealing with them and the moral high ground people that refused to deal with them, their first few months of auctions was like getting into a pre-COVID time machine.

That small window has passed, though.

Since they decided to sell 1000 other things besides cards I don't use the site as much. The search is bloated and constantly churning letter-by-letter rather than waiting for a full search query. It was annoying figuring out how to block all the excess "noise" from the site (such as the real-time bidding popups). I pop in once a week for a few quick key searches and get out as quickly as possible.

I am at the point i just laugh when I see PWWC threads. Seriously how many times do you and/or people you know need to be hit in the thumb with a hammer before you figure out it hurts.

Well, I sent an inquiry about the scrapbook/Baseball Sportstamps I recently picked up to SGC and received an informative email response from one of their employees about how best to proceed should I choose at some point to sell. The response included a phone number.

I can’t believe I’m going to defend the PWCC fraud ring but - don’t most people block folks who send emails telling them they or their organization suck? Isn’t it clear this is why one would be deemed undesirable? If one insults a business to them one should expect they may choose to sever the relationship.

Because when you want to discuss something, or need resolution, the phone is THE best way to get answers quickly. Waiting for some staffer to give you an answer, at their pace, sucks. Plus, you can't have a fast, back and forth dialogue when you are waiting for answers. The phone allows for this.

For this generation, chat is just as good. And they do have chat.
