I think SCD's authenticating the authenticators series has been informative at times, so I give them credit for that. One thing that has always bothered me about SCD, though, is all the attention and publicity they give to Coaches' Corner auctions. In my view, CC is one of the least credible auction houses in the business. Moreover, they typically offer low grade stuff that is rarely newsworthy. Nevertheless, SCD runs large articles trumpeting the latests CC auction as though it is newsworthy. It's pretty clear they do this because CC advertises so heavily in the magazine. But by doing this, SCD has reduced its own credibility in my view. --Steve
