Trimming
Just a general question about card trimming. I can understand how it can happen to the older cards. But how in the hell can trimming on a modern card not be detected, especially by professional TPG's ? Isn't the quality control on modern cards such that they are all exactly the same size ?

Besides the sports card radio and blowout is there a list of known card doctors from over the years ? If anyone could pm that I’d appreciate it.

BUT, and this is a big point. Not all cards are die cut. And not all cards are even cut the same way on every side. Some Gypsy queen cards are a combination of die cut and knife cut. I doubt any TPG even knows that, and have even less belief that they would check even if they knew. |

What a disgraceful waste of money. Not even a rare card.

|

Just wondering, is it possible to get the Bench card into another PSA holder with a different serial number without cracking the card?

Sure, ask for a review and if it gets a new grade it would get a new number.

Thanks for the answer. Since that card is a PSA 10, it won't have a new serial number? Right?
|

Well no real reason to review a 10.

Will the billion dollar fraud actually be tallied up by Boda or not? I'm betting they can do it because if I think it's a billion dollar fraud by my math, it is probably a 2 billion fraud when you take into consideration how long this grift has been going on. |

Incorrect. It would retain it's current Cert number with PSA. It would likely get one of the new untraceable ones from SGC, though.

They create these wonderful new "services" under the charade/semblance of possessing enhanced capabilities. But it's really just about increasing unnecessary submissions and bilking the public. And the hypnotized masses buy into it hook line and sinker, because they seemingly need an overburdened minimum wage earning stranger to validate their cards. |

And the fools that would pay $11k for that card are the crackheads that enable/motivate these drug dealers/card doctors.

The industry has been completely overblown smoke and mirrors in terms of sales/pricing since 2015........I believe little to non of the sold numbers......it’s going to come back down .....it always has to some extent. The correction will only get deeper, and much deserved.

NFL player Evan Mathis and Sean Bassik are currently being outed on Blowout.
https://www.blowoutforums.com/showthread.php?t=1340211 Edit: Clarify that Sean is listed as a seller of Evan's presumed altered cards and those from another trimmer.

Fair, but of the cards look the same how is one a 10 and the other an 8? They either suck at what they do or they are giving favours to submitters like PWCC

He bought 10 packs (cost 20 k) from a big '86 Fleer basketball box break a couple years ago. Didn't even get a Jordan, but that's beside the point. If the guy was regularly risking that kind of money with such a low EV, the money would go pretty quick

I believe the Mick was graded many years ago, and he bought it that way.
Hoping that Sean is just fencing bad cards he didn't realize were altered.

Agree on both comments above about Sean. No way he would be involved with this. Stand up guy who just flips collections.

I know Sean pretty well and do not believe he will be found to be engaged in fraud. Any one of us could accidentally sell a bad TPG graded card which we didn't know was messed up.

This should be its own thread.
I have dealt with Sean and he was a stand up guy. I fear he may be guilt by association. Regarding Mathis, I did one deal with him - I traded him a Manning and Brady rookie for a PSA 8, Allen and Ginters, Cap Anson, which I consigned to PSA (and got killed on). I hope that 8 wasn’t jacked - I don’t think it was - but based on the thread, I am afraid the Manning and Brady may have since been worked on and recirculated (zero clue or indication that they have). I will try to find pics of the Manning and Brady when I owned them to post. Full disclosure, I am a broncos fan Edited - here is a link to a pic of the Manning I used to own. I cannot find the Brady: https://www.flickr.com/photos/156271...7689561527103/ https://www.flickr.com/photos/156271...7689561527103/ Last edited by Rhotchkiss; 12-20-2019 at 08:38 AM. |

Settle down, Chuck .
I prefer to use the half glass full terminology and say most of TPG graded cards are good. This whole debacle has just made it so much more relevant to not buy the holder and KNOW your cards, yourself. .

There should be a grading company that simply assesses authenticity. No "grades". Just tell me if it's real so I can be 100% sure I'm not buying a reprint online. Beyond that. Every buyer can make their own determination on condition. At least then all the fraud would be above board.

I woke up this morning to a text from a gentlemen I've dealt with in the past bringing this thread to my attention. It is not too pleasant to spend a couple hours in the morning reading false accusations and needing to study hundreds of replies via multiple sites to issue a statement.
I am quite irate because an anonymous individual has made an erroneous assumption that libels my and my companies name, assumes guilt by association, and is counterfactual. Evan posted on the reddit thread, "There is so much misinformation in that thread that it’s entertaining." I would not call it entertaining, the words that come to mind are bothersome and alarming. The post involves me without facts, making stretch assumptions, and objectively false statements. Invest In Baseball was hired by Cardology for the 2018 national to assess collections and market for inventory via our customer base and other means. IIB did not set up a booth and I worked the floor and out of the Cardology booth to help assess collections, ensure he was making fair deals, bring deals to the table, and help some lesser educated staff because of limited bandwidth. This buying ad is identical to the buying ads that were placed throughout the industry, sent to our email list, and was not conducted any differently than usual business other than I was hired, at a very handsome rate, to help Cardology. I was actually extremely excited to be working with an NFL player, a Super Bowl champion at that. I am 100% sure every single person who has a business would be willing to work with someone who offers a huge advancement for your company via name association alone. Evan has always been cordial, stand-up, and follows through with his word. If it weren't for him I would not have been able to grow IIB as quickly as it did and I am eternally grateful. I make no comment on any of the accusations or assumptions made about him in the Blowout thread and only provide comment on the unfounded accusations relating to myself and IIB. Via the anonymous posters definition, PWCC, Probstein, and COMC are all associates of Cardology-- they sold inventory. It is unwarranted to list IIB as an associate because the company was hired to work for Evan and unknowingly sold cards on consignment. I am sure there are hundreds of other vendors, auctions, and collectors who have unwittingly sold altered cards, by this posters definition he needs to research them and list them as associates. Respectfully, I request that I be left out of this. I've mostly moved on from this industry for two years as a business and buy on the side as a hobby to populate my house and enjoy the past that brought me to where I am today. Kind Regards, Sean |

I've been saying this exact thing for years. But nobody cares or agrees... They're all too caught up in their Pops, 9s and 10s. I guess that somehow a third party randomly assigning a number grade (right or wrong) gives them a high of sorts. Would love to see it all come crumbling down, but am not holding my breath. |
