<p>[QUOTE=&quot;krispy, post: 1445996, member: 19065&quot;]It would help if you mentioned what kind of notes you are trying to buy like this so we can talk about your question with more specific examples... The best protection is education. <u>Know</u> what you are buying, and if you are into high value collectibles or rarities, that education as well as only buying notes you can inspect in person before you lay out any money, <u>will</u> protect you, even better than a plastic sheath around a note sealed by a TPG. If you can&#039;t view in hand what you are buying, then as mentioned already, you will need to pay the price of a professional who carries your criteria around and helps locate what you are looking for. You either pay for that over the market value of the notes the dealer sells them to you or you throw some degree of trust that a TPG flagged any &#039;doctoring&#039; they detected by not certifying the notes or by indicating alterations on their holders. The cheapest way is to educate yourself about these things and to buy only what you know to be free of these things after you have seen the note in hand. A TPGs guarantee has a limit and cannot catch everything all the time.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
