What PSA should do is purchase this card and then at the National crack it out in front of whoever wants to watch and re-grade the card with their head grader. If the card was put in a Authentic (trimmed) holder it would speak volumes for the hobby and the integrity of the company. When Ben Hogan started the Ben Hogan Golf Company in 1953 he scrapped the first sets of irons which were valued at 100,000 all of which was out of his own pocket. He spoke to every person involved in regards to the building of the blades and would not tolerate imperfections or alignment issues with the clubhead. The Ben Hogan Company then set a standard in the industry for accountability and their blade dominated the PGA Tour for the the next three decades. Perhaps Mr. Orlando could learn a lesson from the old master that sometimes one step back can get you three steps forward. >
