   I felt like that before too but the simple fact is without proof   
   anything is going on, you can't put a negativity on them... they are   
   innocent till proven guilty.  I agree with the tons of stuff and had   
   questioned in the past how come so  many before.  However, their items   
   look good.... so that's the primary thing.  They told me how they get   
   their items and as long as the items are good, I see no reason to   
   doubt them because they have a lot of numbers of items.  I do agree   
   though, on the surface, that is a question autograph collectors should   
   always consider and question.  Bob said it too.  He's right.  But   
   unless there's proof of somethign wrong, you can't just assume because   
   they have a lot of something, it's amiss.  If you got something else,   
   fine; till then, they get the benefit.  Your opinion on this?
