Interesting read here. Raw card buyers beware when seeing a mid to high end card ran live on a singles stream. If a card has been in the pipeline for 10 plus years and was never graded there's ALWAYS a reason
I bought this LeBron James /500 on @Whatnot last week and had it graded on site by Beckett. They graded it as altered because of added ink. Whatnot is saying it’s been too long since delivery to get help with this item???

Todays walk through the 1952 @topps set festures a Philadelphia Athletics player Joe Astroth card#290. Joe had a brief career with only 13 homeruns. After baseball Joe ran a bowling alley and ice cream business. The yeallow backgrounds make the darker colors really stand out @CardPurchaser
Todays walk through the 1952 @topps set features another Boston Brave Tommy Holmes card #289. Tommy was the short term manager for Boston in 1952. He was a solid 300 hitter during his playing days. This card with the bleachers in the background is a really nice portrait @CardPurchaser
Todays walk through the 1952 @topps set features a Boston Brave Chet Nichols card #288. Chet played for three clubs including Milwaukee and Boston. He did lead the league NL ERA in 1951. He served two years during the Korean war and apparently turned heads when this portrait was envisioned @CardPurchaser
Let's see if we can get a couple answers
1. Did Probstein ever address the Snype website failure allegations and WHY did Ebay allow him back so soon??
2. Why don't we know what happen to 2 million $$$ stolen at the Dallas Card Show two years ago????
3. Is this hobby going to survive the auction house nightmare as many companies are being ran or higher ups are connected to Bill Mastro in some way. Is there shill bidding rampant across the auction universe?
4. When will @psa deactivate the Wagner 0001 cert due to being trimmed.
The hobby has so much baggage to sort through
5. Can we all be honest and say modern day patches and autos will not beat vintage cards in years to come.
6. Any word on backdoored uncut sheets from recent products being stolen amd unleashed on the market

Todays walk through the 1952 @topps set features another St Louis Brown Joe DeMaestri card#286. The background color IMO lacks but the cardboard holds these colors very very well. A member of the 1961 World Series Champions and another keeper for any set collector @CardPurchaser thank you as always for sharing this history
Todays walk through the 1952 @topps set is another St Louis Browns player Hank Arft Card #284. While he had a brief career he was with this ine team. Hank was a WWII US Navy veteran. This is one of the most colorful cards rounding out the semi high numbers @CardPurchaser and the guy looks like Mike Gio
