The whole SCD pressure has been going on alot longer than the beginning of their auction. This has been YEARS of boycotting and the pressure SCD received on other forums and blogs. Even if they never opened an auction house, this was bound to happen. I know of 100+ individuals who would constantly email SCD's higher ups complaining and what not for the past year and a half. Mike just reported it, no need to give him credit. I give the credit to all the INDIVIDUALS who did something about it and not just complained on a forum.

I think it's great news and I hope collectors will 'reward' them by giving them another chance. O'Connell writes well and they have had a number of decent articles recently. Dropping their largest advertiser cannot have been easy and I'm certainly going to renew my subscription.

Scd
SCD is doing the right thing but it may be too little too late.
If they really want to prove they are sorry and want to clean up the hobby then they need to do an investigative piece on Coach' Corner and where all the crap material originates. They need to come clean and say that they were aware that questionable material was being sold through Coach's Corner. Once SCD comes clean and starts being pro active in cleaning this hobby up I will then continue to subscribe. SCD has made the turn in the right direction but will they go all the way or will they try to sweep the whole Coach's Corner problem under the rug? Last edited by LOUCARDFAN; 06-13-2009 at 07:55 PM.

I agree with some of you that there is more to SCD dumping C.C. They have been supporting these guys for 20 years even back in the late 90's when C.C were auctioning off stuff with certs from Stan's Sports, J.Dimaggio and a few others that the FBI found there companies were selling fake stuff. I think the main reason for parting ways is SCD or the parent company is starting there own auctions now with certs from PSA,JSA, and the major ones, and leaving out Morales and Stat so how can they support C.C. and say there stuff is real and SCD not use there authenticators. I don't see SCD appolize for anything but well see.

We discussed this one on the memorabilia board
From the web description.
"Super-rare ball with the LONG-deceased Mathewson signing it soon before his death." Did I miss something -- or is Christy supposed to be able to sign after he began his dirt nap. Handy Andy Cohen does not make the majors until 1926; someone sure showed great foresight on the signatures they amassed on this ball. Ross Youngs not much of a window to sign this one either. Or as Adam W wrote -- why let death interfere with autograph gathering This is a classic all right Jodi; your thoughts? Rich Last edited by Rich Klein; 06-14-2009 at 09:13 PM.

What's the point in opining on a "FrankenBall"? Do they have some sort of Frankenthenticator for these mish-mashes of history?
