Someone from the psa boards sent me an e-mail and asked me if there were any dealers that I would unequivocally vouch for that I am confident do not alter cards. On the message boards, I can recall five I have bought from that I would vouch for.

I have bought cards from them all and would have no hesitation about buying from any of them in the future.
Anyone's omission from this list does not suggest anything positive or negative about them....only that I cannot recall any more dealers that have been on the message boards that I have bought from.

John,
I did not know you considered yourself a dealer. I thought you were a collector that occasionally sold some cards. If you consider yourself a dealer I would add your name to that list. John Basilone is an honest guy and I would have no hesitation about doing business with him.

Certainly anyone should inspect closely any card they buy--even with that good luck--do not believe that most dealers or collectors could tell you if a card was altered--theoretically, that is why we have the grading companies.. My only intent here was to repond publicly to a private e-mail asking me to highlight some dealers who do not alter their cards.

Wow...that is a big difference...Im hoping the collector who bought that card knew that the "for chewing and smoking" section was missing.
Michael (or others)...please add some additional information regarding that particular issue...where there versions that did not include the bottom section?

Wow! That is an obvious mistake. How did that happen especially if more than one grader looked at the card? I can understand if it was a question of trimmed or something but the entire bottom of the card is missing.
