Preface: There is a lot in this thread. I'd suggest finding some time to get a bowl of popcorn, read though it all, and then comment if you wish. I ask that you please do not just skim though through this thread and then write an uninformed reply, as this will just add confusion to an already complex thread. Not 100% of the content in this thread is germane to the allegations in the title, however I feel that most will appreciate the historical context, either as a refresher or to learn about this company for the first time.
Without further ado, here is Will Jaimet: William Thom Jaimet Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/profile.php?id=100014391516111 LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/will-jaimet-4b851915 Heroes of Sport/Jaimet's Personal Twitter: https://twitter.com/HeroesofSport/media ![]() Note who he is following on Facebook: 1. Kevin Burge ![]() 2. Vinny Ho ![]() 3. Keith Koenig ![]() Will Jaimet has been involved in the sports cards and memorabilia industry from a very young age, as his father, Scott Jaimet AKA Thom Jaimet, used to run Oregon Trail Auctions in the 90s-00s before it was bought out by Mastro West. From all that I have read online, he seems to have been a well respected member of the hobby before his passing in late 2009. Will's presence in the hobby began sometime in the early to mid-2000s when he started selling mostly graded cards though his company Rose City Sports on eBay using the accounts ROSE-CITY-SPORTS and ROSE-CITY-SPORTS-2. Both those user IDs have long since been changed, but some of his listings can be found in the Worthpoint link below. He mostly sold low pop. high-grade cards (PSA 10, BGS 9.5-10) and even had an article written about his company for selling the first SGC 98 Jordan RC. ROSE-CITY-SPORTS: https://www.worthpoint.com/inventory...s%22&category= Jordan SGC 98 article: https://www.sportscollectorsdaily.co...n-rookie-sold/ In 2009 he had his first child, which he said raised his level of responsibility, so he decided to follow in the footsteps of his father and create an auction house by the name of Heroes of Sport. Their first and only auction took place November 18th-December 1st of that year. Source: http://www.net54baseball.com/archive...?t-115242.html In the following years, 2010 through 2012 to be exact, he continued to sell on Ebay and via the Heroes of Sport website, but he never held another Heroes of Sport auction. His reasoning is below: ![]() Source: http://www.sportscardmagazine.net/20...r-will-jaimet/ Instead, as indicated in the except above, he began to prepare (poorly as it would turn out) to launch a repack product by the same name of his auction house, Heroes of Sport. His brand was legitimized by advertising, such as taking out a full page ad on the back cover of Beckett and traveling around the card media circuit for interviews, in addition to the legitimization from the brand he had created running the Heroes of Sport catalog auction. He believed that he had the knowledge to buy cards enough below market value to deliver a valuable product to his customers: ![]() However the legitimacy of both Jaimet and HoS was short-lived, as in late 2012, Boomo announced via FCB that he would be premiering HoS's first product on boomosbreaks. The lengthy FCB thread is below: https://www.freedomcardboard.com/for...t-boomosbreaks To make many long stories short, there was a bunch of petty drama both on FCB and BO that is implicit in choosing to use Boomo as a means of promoting your product. However, there were some clear conclusions to be drawn as the product started to appear through more legitimate and universally-respected hobby distribution channels. First, the ROI was abysmal. While the great hits were great, everything else was fairly worthless. This is discussed in a lengthy BO thread linked below titled "$500 boxes producing $50 in cards? How about $700 box producing a $20 card?": https://www.blowoutforums.com/showth...ghlight=jaimet Second, there was a large controversy with the items in later boxes of the product being purchased during the products run. In other words, the product was not completely packed out (or even purchased) before its launch. This, compounded by the fact that Jaimet did not (and still doesn't) make checklists for his product nor even create a basic sell sheet, was seen as highly concerning in the eyes of most. Tonedef got this one correct: ![]() Source: https://www.blowoutforums.com/showthread.php?t=534913 However, giving credit to HoS, they seemed to recover fairly well from the Boomo launch debacle and suspect packout and Hot Box breaks. They went on to launch a variety of fairly successful products in 2013 and 2014 before going quiet by 2015. There seemed to be some sort internal issues in the company as the co-founder and COO (Yes, there was a co-owner. More on that later.) left the company in November 2014. In addition in mid-2015 a BO member posted about an employee supposedly stealing HoS product: ![]() Source: https://www.blowoutforums.com/showthread.php?t=888014 In 2015, it is unknown what exactly Jaimet and HoS were up to. He/They were trimming cards by this point (more on that later), but it is unknown what other business ventures they were engaged in. Then, in very late 2015, Heroes made its return: ![]() Heroes of Sports "The Truth" was sold in late 2015 though early 2016, and the only way I can interpret the evidence that I am about to present is that it was a massive scam. Feel free to disagree, but nothing below adds up to a legitimate product being issued. The product was 100 cases and was exclusively sold through BrosBreaks. Per Jaimet, it sold out the day before a concluding "draft" that seems comparable to the convoluted HoS points auctions from 2013 that I will not explain in this thread. Here is a tweet from Jaimet linking to the BreakersBro page: ![]() Source: https://twitter.com/HeroesofSport/st...64226331734017 Here is the BreakersBro page. Note the name "Jesse" and the linked Facebook group: ![]() https://breakers.tv/brosbreaks Here is the private Facebook group. As stated, this breaking group existed solely to break HoS "The Truth" and nothing else: ![]() Source: https://www.facebook.com/groups/1641164426138784/ This is who is running the group (note that his name is Jesse): ![]() https://www.facebook.com/jesse.craig.507 His LinkedIn: ![]() Source: https://www.linkedin.com/in/thecraiggrouppdx He is/was the co-owner of HoS: ![]() So this is a little bit suspect. The former, publicly unknown, co-owner named Jesse Craig (who interestingly enough now holds a high-level job at PWCC) created a breaking company to exclusively break 100% of a HoS product that has no checklist and will be broken entirely random-draft style. Does that seem a little bit suspect? If HoS wanted to break its own product why not just do that? Because they were running an elaborate fraud? Jaimet posted some of the high-end hits from HoS "The Truth" on its Twitter page. Here's an example: ![]() The problem is that about 90% of these cards posted do not appear to have been legitimately pulled/drafted to customers. Remember the title of this thread about Jaimet being a large PWCC consigner? That will be proven later, but for now, let's just analyze the hits from this product that were posted on Twitter. Of the last 25 hits from "The Truth" posted on Twitter, 22/25 were sold through PWCC directly after they were posted, 1 sold through Probstein, and 2 did not immediately come up for auction again. There are many more, but 25 seems to be a large enough sample to get the picture.

The only logical conclusion is that BrosBreaks was created only to execute a fraud between HoS and Craig. If the product "sold out" there is no way for them to have legitimately retained 90% of the best hits. And I don't believe that one legitimate buyer purchased some 90 cases of the product. After this debacle, Jaimet's trimming side hustle was in full force through 2016, but everything came to a halt at the end November 2018 when Jaimet was arrested for the following: ![]() There is A LOT to this criminal case, and I'm just going to provide a summary here. If you are interested in reading through it yourself, use the link and instructions provided below to do so: https://webportal.courts.oregon.gov/...e/Dashboard/29 Instructions: Enter "Jaimet, Will" in field and retype characters. Click on case 16CR75219. Do not use back button. Many fields are cut off on the website, so copy/paste may be necessary to read everything. The short run down is the following: On 11/28/16, he was arraigned on the charges above. On 11/29/16 he posted $3k bail. On 12/01/16 his release was revoked, his $3k was forfeited, and his bail was upped to $500k. He was given a no contact order with his wife and kids on this date. At a 12/23/2016 court appearance he was summarily convicted of obstruction for cursing at the judge in court. Snapshot of that below. At a 01/18/2017 court appearance he was again summarily convicted of obstruction for cursing at the judge in court. On 03/03/2017, he plead guilty to the f****y weapons charge and the other charges were dismissed. He was given time served plus 3 years probation. Per the website, he twice violated the terms of his probation. He is still on unsupervised f****y probation as of today. 12/23/2016: ![]() 01/18/2017: ![]() Again, look over everything yourself if you want the grittier details. There's some stuff that just isn't getting posted here. A few months later, Jaimet was back to buying cards to trim, but his days of HoS products were evidently not yet over. In early 2019, with all of Jaimet's LLCs expired for the umpteenth time and the HoS website lost to another entity, Jaimet fired up the HoS Twitter account again to start pumping his new HoS products. He distributed them to at least four breakers (Blowout Cards, Cardsmiths Breaks, Grand Slam Collectibles, and Layton Sports Cards). Yet again, there is no checklist and no sell sheet. I was amused to see that Grand Slam was selling the product based off of what was pulled from HoS products 4-5 years go. Simply comical. ![]() It's hard to assess if a card is trimmed from a group break video, but here's a card that was pulled from 2019 HoS that is unquestionably trimmed: Pre: https://www.worthpoint.com/worthoped...lub-1887207185 Post: https://twitter.com/cardsmithsbreak/...02598518960128 Break video: https://youtu.be/xp5xHzgsjZM?t=414 ![]() I'm going to assert that this card from 2019 HoS is trimmed seeing as it went from a GMA 8.5 to a PSA 10. If anyone knows who has it, we can be 100% certain. Pre: https://www.worthpoint.com/worthoped...kie-1781925822 Break (Watch closely to see serial number is 1346/2011): https://youtu.be/5JhrnWW4yzY?t=194 ![]() ![]() ![]() This card is suspect at best. I see no corner damage on the card pulled from HoS. Pre: https://www.worthpoint.com/worthoped...ions-405237333 Break: https://youtu.be/OyEH3j9-CMU ![]() Lastly, Will Jaimet's Ebay account qut9 (proof below on how we can be certain that it is his account) purchased dozens of raw/BGS 9 Topps flagship color in early 2018. Many have visible flaws. Yet there are dozens of these cards that have never shown up for sale before in his 2019 product. I am certain most if not all are trimmed. Here's a few examples of what I'm talking about: ![]() ![]() ![]() Here are the flagship color cards he bought. Ctrl+f for q***u on these feedback pages. If you are so inclined, feel free to copy the listing title over to Worthpoint to check the condition of these cards out. Most clearly are not Gem Mint: https://feedback.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewFeedback2&ftab=FeedbackLeftForOthers&userid=hacus30&iid=-1&de=off&searchInterval=30&items=200&searchInterval=30 https://feedback.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewFeedback2&ftab=FeedbackLeftForOthers&userid=aces4life&iid=-1&de=off&searchInterval=30&items=200&searchInterval=30 https://feedback.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewFeedback2&ftab=FeedbackLeftForOthers&userid=smsiewin&iid=-1&de=off&searchInterval=30&items=200&searchInterval=30 https://feedback.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewFeedback2&ftab=FeedbackLeftForOthers&userid=onpoint78&iid=-1&de=off&searchInterval=30&items=200&searchInterval=30 https://feedback.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewFeedback2&ftab=FeedbackLeftForOthers&userid=rmac_15&iid=-1&de=off&items=200&searchInterval=30&mPg=4&page=2 https://feedback.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewFeedback2&ftab=FeedbackLeftForOthers&userid=willy4903billy&iid=-1&de=off&searchInterval=30&items=200&searchInterval=30 https://feedback.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewFeedback2&ftab=FeedbackLeftForOthers&userid=puckett&iid=-1&de=off&searchInterval=30&items=200&searchInterval=30 https://feedback.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewFeedback2&ftab=FeedbackLeftForOthers&userid=honest_cards&iid=-1&de=off&searchInterval=30&items=200&searchInterval=30 https://feedback.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewFeedback2&ftab=FeedbackLeftForOthers&userid=cajunbreaker&iid=-1&de=off&items=200&searchInterval=30&mPg=7&page=3 https://feedback.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewFeedback2&ftab=FeedbackLeftForOthers&userid=bassin2007&iid=-1&de=off&searchInterval=30&items=200&searchInterval=30 https://feedback.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewFeedback2&ftab=FeedbackLeftForOthers&userid=mlbfanatic&iid=-1&de=off&searchInterval=30&items=200&searchInterval=30 https://feedback.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewFeedback2&ftab=FeedbackLeftForOthers&userid=enoch47&iid=-1&de=off&items=200&searchInterval=30&mPg=25&page=2 https://web.archive.org/web/20190417...mPg=52&page=52 https://feedback.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewFeedback2&userid=kdh2480&ftab=FeedbackLeftForOthers&ftabfocus=true&searchInterval=30 https://web.archive.org/web/20190417...mPg=44&page=14 LINKING WILL JAIMET TO QUT9: At this point, if you didn't come here from one of the sports threads showing trimmed cards sold via PWCC from Ebay user qut9, go check those out: https://www.blowoutforums.com/showthread.php?t=1288385 https://www.blowoutforums.com/showthread.php?t=1288384 https://www.blowoutforums.com/showthread.php?t=1288386 If you did, here are 5 points of proof that qut9 is Will Jaimet. #6 would be that his account went dead while he was dealing with his criminal case, but I won't prove that below. 1. qut9 is Located near Vancouver, Washington, but not in the state of Washington. The name on qut9's account is Vancouver Card Company, which is 100% fictitious. No such LLC exists in Washington or Oregon, nor does Google return anything. Here is a BO post about that user ID: ![]() Source: https://www.blowoutforums.com/showth...highlight=qut9 Note the 97... zip. That has to be an Oregon address, not one in Washington. Jaimet is in the Tigard/Lake Oswego area, which has a 97... zip code. 2. A Card qut9 purchased appears in a 2019 HoS product. ![]() Link: https://web.archive.org/web/20190416...rchInterval=30 Break: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=K7FP...&list=WL&t=790 ![]() 3. An unnamed, reliable source puts trimmed Jeter qut9 purchased in Will Jaimet's possession. Dan called the following card out as trimmed here: https://www.blowoutforums.com/showpo...86&postcount=2 Here is the buyer feedback for the raw sale of that card (note exact title match): ![]() Link: https://web.archive.org/web/20190406...824572&page=55 A reliable source puts this card in Will Jaimet's possession. 4.

In 2013, qut9 purchased card inserted in HoS. ![]() Link: https://www.worthpoint.com/worthoped...nte-1617130819 ![]() Link: https://feedback.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewFeedback2&ftab=FeedbackLeftForOthers&userid=anybodyanytime&iid=-1&de=off&items=200&searchInterval=30&mPg=14&page=6 Worthpoint: https://www.worthpoint.com/worthoped...mber-423415532 ![]() This card might be trimmed, but I am unconvinced as I really don't like the raw seller's pictures due to their tendency to magnify damage. You decide. POINTS TO TAKE AWAY FROM THIS THREAD: 1. Do NOT purchase any Heroes of Sports products. 2. Buyer beware when purchasing cards from fly-by-night repack/card companies. 3. If a modern graded (PSA, BGS, or SGC) card's first sale was through PWCC, I'd say there is approximately a 50% chance it is trimmed. Use the PWCC Auction history to verify a card has never sold though PWCC in addition to Worthpoint to look for evidence of trimming. Additional threads in the works will further substantiate this statistic. 4. It greatly concerns me that Jesse Craig is employed by PWCC considering his involvement with HoS and relationship with Jaimet. Last edited by 3124508 on COMC; 04-21-2019 at 09:35 PM. |

You should apply for a job with Court TV. You would get PAID.
You and Dan are better at this then actual investigative journalists. The fact that you are willing to expose anyone, no matter who they are or what their standing is in the hobby/business is fantastic. Every one of these threads should be posted on every PSA & BGS social media page. Facebook, Twitter, Ingtagram...all of them. It is borderline insulting that they refuse to reply or address the problem. |

Incredible.
First question: Have you contacted PWCC directly about this? Second question: Have they responded..? |

This absolutely SHOULD shake the industry. Disgusting.
Phenomenal work over the last few months. So many kudos to you for your time and investment in your research and reveals. This is disgusting. I will continue to stay tuned.

What OP has done here is legitimate, investigative journalism. It is incredibly sourced and backed up by facts in every instance. He leaves it up to the reader to agree or disagree with his conclusions, but the evidence is dispassionately presented and is crystal clear as long as you follow the trail. This work is a victory for the hobby and for the #1stamendment

Also I feel this thread should also exist on the main sports sub forums on here, though you did link it

this is incredible incredible work...but i have to ask...now what? We live in a country where so few people seem to be held accountable for their actions. will these guys just be allowed to continue? which unfortunately is what i fear will happen. How can we keep that from being the case?

I read this article posted. Jordan SGC 98 article: https://www.sportscollectorsdaily.co...n-rookie-sold/ Funny, he sold the first SGC 98 Fleer Jordan while he purchased 2 BGS 9.5 Jordan's. Lord knows what happened to the 2 BGS 9.5 Jordan's.
I do not understand why certain people only shop through a consignment house and pay a premium there. Some of the largest ebay sellers that accept consignments are merely places where people dump their trimmed cards that they successfully had graded. And let's not kid ourselves that the consignment houses do not know who the main trimmers are - they know and look the other way. Taking down a few cards here and there caught because of serial numbered cards hardly hurts their business. But the tons of other trimmed ones that got through have been sold over and over. And that's part of the reason the consignment houses have been able to build up huge business - by taking consignments from these known trimmers. I think PWCC would be wise to no longer put the Certified High End sticker on the cards if as PWCC says in the listing that he relies on third party grading. Inevitably, he will wind up putting some stickers on trimmed or altered cards. Then again, all the Certified High End means usually from what I have seen is a card is well centered. All the listing descriptions with sharp edges, nice corners, perfect centering, etc., often there is a reason to it that allowed that card to stand out from others. Then again I do not know why I am getting emails from a couple of sources listing top cards on ebay - inevitably those places are endorsing trimmed cards without realizing it. Whether or not proven by showing samples of non-serial numbered cards, the serial numbered cards are merely a small sample of what has gotten through. Last edited by JMANIA; 04-20-2019 at 10:18 PM. |

So let me get this straight. A known f***n and scammer had no problem selling and distributing his product to Blowout Cards as recently as a few months ago.
Hmmm very interesting.

Great work again. I’m wondering what risk PSA, BGS, PWCC, Probstein, etc. are at when this house of cards crumbles. Say the FBI does get involved, and the trimmers go down. These companies have been made aware on countless occasions since the end of 2018 of fraudulent cards. Have they taken the steps necessary to stop these individuals from grading or consigning? It’s very easy for them to identify the culprits. Have they done so? If not, how are these companies not accessories to these crimes? They are helping to perpetuate the fraud of passing these altered cards onto unsuspecting victims.

TBH I think the only thing BO is guilty of here is not doing a background check on this guy. 312 did all the work for them though for the future. It will be interesting to see if Will Jaimet of HoS responds to this thread like BNC, like SSI, or if he remains silent and simply tries to weather this storm.

This is all very sad, yet very unsurprising. This hobby is composed mostly of people who are very, very, easy marks. Degenerate gamblers, people spending money they don’t have, people trying to make a quick buck, etc. A ripe group to be taken advantage of.

It's not as if BO didn't have a wealth of information like the forum at their disposal. All they had to do was conduct a simple search for Heroes of Sport and see the red flags. They're guilty by association or best case scenario they enabled this crook to keep doing his thing.

Incredible work again, I hope that someday soon it gets the attention it deserves. I know it's an uphill battle because there's a LOT of people interested in making sure that doesn't happen.

Great work OP, laid out very clearly to me. It will be interesting to see how this all plays out. Honestly it’s going to be hard to not bid on some of the cards from PWCC but I’ve had my suspicions in the past and this just adds to the information available. Thank you for your hard work.

I am going to focus some attention on Jesse Craig.
Will Jaimet's BFF former business partner who is now at the top of PWCC - which doubles as Will Jaimet's go-to laundromat. This guy KNOWS. ![]()
