Card Collector Who Spent Over Two Years Building $100,000 Collection Gets Terrible News From PSA

He released a YouTube video discussing the incident and going through some of the most high-value cards in the collection and what he thought they should be worth. One was a Tyrese Maxey with a projected PSA 10 value of $1,911.
