The cert number on the card is no longer listed in their database, so it will no longer show up as a Honus Wagner if someone does a lookup through their site.

So, there will still be a flip out there for a PSA2 t206 Honus (assuming this thing sells), but at least it won't track back to a valid number in the PSA database.

Funniest is what the seller added to his auction description to try and spin things:

"ADDITION AS OF JANUARY 24, 2005 8:00 p.m.EST PSA contacted me today and demanded the card back. When I refused to send it to them they told me that they would uncertify their own certification. It appears that they deleted it from their system. I'm not even sure they can do that. I think that they just made a rare one of a kind card a little rarer, if that is possible."

Has somebody told this guy that the card isn't rare, the holder is, and that the holder no longer actually has any market value since the certification number doesn't correspond to anything they will admit to having graded?

Of course, two months from now, they'll probably use that cert # for a Pete Rose rookie...
