Default Shout-out to a Conscientious Ebay Seller

On ebay, I saw a graded 1962 Babe Ruth card that was erroneously labeled by PSA as a green tint, so I messaged the seller to tell him what was what (including some specific differences between the GT and normal cards, to prove I was on the up and up) and BOOM!! almost immediately he changed his listing to let people know the truth, putting it right in the title of the listing. A less scrupulous seller would've kept the information to him/herself to make a little more money on the sale, since GT's (especially Ruths) carry a premium. Since there are so many problematic ebay'ers, I wanted to take a moment to point out a good one.

Don't know if he's a net54 member or not, and I don't have any skin in the game, but he is marlo_36 and the auction is:

Spelling "Yastrzemski" correctly without needing to look it up since the 1980s.
