The card in the auction was a t206 Piedmont PSA 3 while the cert listing calls it t206 Sovereign PSA 3. This is a fairly early PSA flip style when the back was not IDed on the front.
Is it not that unusual to get a back wrong in their cert listing (especially for old flips) and not to be that worried about--or is this a massive red flag waving? I should note that it went for something of a bargain price so it's possible some others were scared off, or not.
Should I not go through with paying the invoice due to the cert discrepancy? Thanks.

Which is more likely, that PSA screwed up or that there's an issue with the auction house?
Personally, I would pay the invoice. However, I would only bid with auction houses that stand behind what they're selling. If there was something wrong with the item (tampered holder or fake card/slab, for example) when I received it, there would definitely be a return/refund...and I'd know that was an option before bidding.
