A couple of years ago you had to put in the zip code as well. No big deal. You can still look up cert numbers and match them up if you want to see what certain individuals are grading.
It won't be long before the cert numbers, beside the first 3 numbers (which act as a time stamp) are random. Being able to look at all the trimmed cards that surround that "sweet" psa 9 you just got... .................... can't be making the dealers on "the list" very happy.
The only way you can really look up an invoice to begin with is if the owner of the cards that were graded gives you the invoice number. I don't really know that this changes anything. If you want to post your invoice, just state your zip code as well in your post. If you've been playing Invoice Roulette, you have too much time on your hands anyway. (Though I have done this before myself! )
I would be willing to bet that it was because of pressure from some dealers/large submitters. Or, it could be to stop the posts of the "Roulette players" that post a thread with an invoice # containing 80% "EVID TRIM" and a few "nice PSA 9's", suggesting that some cards "slipped through".

Probably a combination of both.
