Caveat emptor - let the buyer beware

The principle that the buyer alone is responsible for checking the quality and suitability of goods before a purchase is made.

When it comes to sports cards, it's like musical flips, whatever the current flip indicates is what matters to a lot of people.

TPGs are subjective, however if a trusted TPG indicates they believe there's something wrong, then wouldn't you like to know that before you purchase it, even though another TPG says the card is good to go?

In this case the winner is PSA and the consignor because a higher grading fee was paid and the consignor is going to bank off that. Now if PSA were the consignor, I'd be wondering "wassup".
