Default Fake common m101-4 OK'd by PSA

Not that this should set anyone back much if they bid and win it, but still...

I’m surprised this one got through as authentic—it clearly is not. You’d think that the submitter of a card in that condition would have asked and received a numeric grade, or that it would say “authentic altered” if trimmed, color added, etc. Rather irrelevant given that it is a reprint or fake, but maybe it should have raised a flag with PSA if it was only asked to give an “A” grade.

Also, I don’t recall seeing that kind of holder, with the larger inside bumpers to help contain the smaller card (at least on m101s). Is that relatively new? Here's the card in question:


Here's a real Saier for comparison
