Anonymity in submissions, bids, and consignments is the card doctors' great enabler, and the firms that control the hobby wouldn't have it any other way.
Way way back in the day, Brent used to upload scans to a self-hosted website that actually were named according to the consignor lol which you could see if you downloaded them. As in moser1.jpg. Seriously. I told maybe three people and swore them to secrecy, and one of them blabbed, because Brent changed his system soon thereafter.
