There should NOT be more than a couple "oh we f*cked up" cases when it comes to the grading of cards. You guys seem to give waaaaaay more leniency than necessary. I am not sure if it is out of allegiance or just plain ignorance (and believe me I mean no disrespect to anybody) but this is NOT an issue that we should be dealing with on a daily basis.
PERIOD.
This should NOT be as common of a thing as it is .... and the more we "just live with it" the more it becomes commonplace and "ok" for the graders.
This has become total bullsh*t. This is happening WAAAAY too often, from any company. If these fools think that we, as collectors, should take their word as "god", they better get their ducks in a row or the whole "graded card industry" is going to hell.
just my 2 cents.

I think every collector who buys graded cards feels your pain Steve
because chances are, somewhere along the way we've all bought a graded card, and got it in hand, and after inspection wondered "how the hell did this card get this grade???".
I have a card that is graded a 4 but under closer inspection of the back, I can clearly see the number 134 lightly erased from the back. In all other aspects, it's a 4. But, knowing that it had a 134 erased from the back, I wouldn't feel comfortable selling it as a 4 without disclosing this (not that I ever plan on selling it
).
