Has anyone here actually given a card to Kevin for inspection? |

Thanks for the answers jim. I can understand wanting someone to look over your cards- slabbed or not. However, I am not sure how many people would be willing to pay Kevin as I’m not sure what makes Kevin an ‘expert’ any more than grading companies or other ‘highly esteemed’ individuals in the hobby. I’m also a bit concerned that people would theoretically pay Kevin to ‘sign off’ on a card and if Kevin deems such a card to be ‘altered’, that the person would just not buy the card yet allow it to fall into the hands of someone else. When do we stop questioning a card’s authenticity? After bvg, psa, sgc, gai, and random ‘experts’ okay the cards? |

Well, I’ve been sitting back now for a couple days reading the insults mixed with a few compliments and my future being planned by those who don’t even know me. There have even been posts by those who have sent me cards to examine, called or sent emails for advice...for the fee of…nothing. This is something I have enjoyed doing for some time for hobby friends because they trust my opinion. Most of these are friends from the few years I spent on LTS, a place I really enjoyed. |

It seems to me we should give Kevin a chance to do whatever it is he is going to do, and hope that Jim at some point will report back to us on the results if he starts sending cards to Kevin to inspect. I am skeptical for the reasons mentioned (that I think review inside a slab is very limited) but wish Kevin luck. And now, back to LTS vs. Jim Crandell, sorry for the interruption. |

Call it what you want Peter. But, I think it's obvious that no matter how slow I read it ......or how many times I read it .....it just isn't the great business venture Jim says it is. There are a lot of people here that agree with me that aren't from LTS. It seems like you are one of them based on your comment above. |

Tom no question I have a great deal of skepticism not so much about Kevin in particular (although the burden of proof is on him to establish his credentials) but on the value of what I call ubergrading. That said, though, it seems irrelevant to me whether Jim was kicked off CU or LTS |

Does it Peter? It think it goes to the fact Jim starts a lot of crap of forums and has a track record of being thrown off them to bring peace. I certainly understood the relevance. |

I note several LTSers who never post on this forum jumping in to gleefully attack Jim. What is their point? Jim did not even start this thread, by the way. I guess we can disagree Tom on the relevance. |

For those of you who don't know--Tom started LTS to give me a place to post. He will admit it. As I had been kicked off CU he and others wanted to create a place where people could tell it like it is and I became one of the very first members. So those of you that like to run through my message board history should keep in mind that Tom and pretty much everyone who joined LTS backed me in the PSA disputes. Nearly all the quality posters on the Set Registry Message Board joined LTS. |

Good point Charlie--agree--I like Baker as well and believe he is the best grader in the hobby--and Kevin has actually been able to show him and teach him a couple of things although I am sure Mike has been able to show Kevin a lot more. |

Jim, you did a lot more than just mention the launch of his website... go back read through your posts... you touted him as having "arrived" because Leon was giving threads about him extra attention... you've repeatedly advocated how he possibly succeed at a business venture. |

Any publicity is good publicity? With friends like Dav, who needs enemies. Kevin's first post about his website was a defensive one due to Dav's glorious PR. |
