Default PWCC blocking bidder IDs?

I looked at a few items that had been listed overnight and they all seem to have the bidder IDs blocked. Not sure how far back it goes, but not very as items ending in a couple of days are not blocked.

What up with that?

Remember the old Brent, who used to lobby eBay as a powerseller to increase the openness of their platform and root out fraud?


Neither do I.

I plead guilty to that charge, but it's well justified LOL.

If they're not the best yet, give them a cutter and some retouching brushes or a paper press. They will be.

Look, I'm a big registry collector and if PWCC is the only one that has some super rare card in perfect condition--even if it's a card that doesn't naturally exist in that condition--I'm all in. And I don't care if it's conserved because I really, really, really need it for my GPA 9.99 set.

But it was all right, everything was all right, the struggle was finished. He had won the victory over himself. He loved Big Brother.

LOL.

I love grading. I’ve got a 50- and 100- card bulk sub at PSA right now.

What I hate are profiteering charlatans that’s are ruining the hobby by defacing historical artifacts under the ruse of “conservation.”

Maybe so because the link to Our Team was taken down last year after the PWCC scandal broke but good thing archive.org has their April 2019 captures where that link existed at that time. https://web.archive.org/web/20190318...e.com/our-team

Maye one of Brent's defenders could ask him why he is doing this? I am sure he could spin it.

I’m pretty live and let live and have sympathy for consigners not being able to police everything they sell. I found the evidence I’ve seen about PWCC being directly involved in trimming to be compelling, however. Calling those that criticize them as “haters” is in my opinion, completely misplaced.

Brent stopped taking questions and doing interviews in early June 2019 for some reason.

Pip is typing in his extreme sarcasm font.

Hmmmm. Well, if I were representing him, I would have given him the same advice.
