Am I missing something or did PSA misclassify this card as a real 1953 Topps Campanella? And 9 no less? The card back clearly says it’s from the Archives set. See link:

Zero feedback seller, fake PSA label. Get used to the new normal and thank your lucky stars there's still places like Net54.

Yeah PSA has gotten real sloppy
If you type in cert # it comes up as a legit '53 Topps Campy...smh

I believe that number was attached to a valid 53 Campy at some point. That's the only thing in common with this listing.

I think it is a real 9 but this dude obviously doesn't have it. It is a stolen scan of the front. Notice the image of the back is a raw card, Archives no less, bc the scammer likely only found a scan of the front of the 9 and is apparently too lazy to find a slabbed back image to pair with it.

So it’s another scam but not a PSA mistake. That’s kind of a good outcome in today’s hobby

There's big money in this business, scammers follow the money. I can buy empty PSA slabs at 5 bucks each, a custom label printer to mimic old PSA labels, and an ultrasonic plastic sealer for $1000, and a readily accessible database at PSA. Took me 20 minutes of research to find the tools. All from China btw.
