[QUOTE="Endeavor, post: 2230501, member: 60292"]I recently got into the registry set thing, sorta (I'm only doing it for one set really). As I was entering a coin I realized there is no proof of ownership required. That got me wondering if someone I am "competing" against (for best set) could be entering coins they don't own. All they would have to do is search past (or current) auctions to get the certification number. Assuming the actual owner hasn't registered the coin themself of course. [EDIT: I realize this is something most people wouldn't do, but there are these ultra competitive freaks out there that would ruin it for everyone] I also wonder if PCGS gets requests or complaints from actual owners that someone else has falsely registered ownership of their coin. I must say, realizing this has completely taken the wind out of the sails for me on registry set building. I would hope TPG's fix this and come up with some way to verify ownership. I don't know how but the way it is now is flawed, in my opinion.[/QUOTE]
