<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Conder101, post: 2230567, member: 66&quot;]People started creating false registries shortly after they were first created&nbsp; In the early years a lot of the top registry collections were made up of collections that had many &quot;stolen&quot; certification numbers.&nbsp; That was why people started hiding the numbers in ebay auctions and&nbsp; sellers would create fake registries and enter the coins they had for sale in them to keep others from stealing the numbers and putting them into their sets.&nbsp; When they would sell a coin they would remove it from their false registry.&nbsp; Sometimes they would forget and the buyer would then have to go through the TPG to get the coin into their set.</p><p><br /></p><p>Typically they would have to contact the TPG and the TPG would contact the owner of the other registry set to find out who actually owned the coin.&nbsp; If the other person didn&#039;t respond then they would put the coin into the new set.</p><p><br /></p><p>There are probably still some sets. competitive and non-competitive, that contain stolen numbers.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
