Interesting. A 475% increase in price because of inflated grading. And the same story, the fox is watching the hen house.

We don't need outsiders controlling the values and grading. If TCR has a chip over valued, it doesn't stop people from paying less. Likewise, the guide doesn't stop people from paying more, based on their own personal desires. The hobby does just fine by taking care of itself. Collector to collector, not an elite upper structure that controls and manipulates the market and the prices.

It's not broken, don't fix it! ;-)
