PSA is at fault but so are the idiots who don't educate themselves about what they buy.

And there's the problem. TPG encourages across the board laziness. Why do any due diligence when PSA backstops you? And then when you do learn of a problem, just pass it down the line through any number of consignment sellers who are happy to offer a PSA slab without any critical evaluation because it is a PSA slab.
