PSA cant get it right!!!!

[sportscollector]

PSA cant get it right. The 1933 Goudey sports Kings Ty Cobb I sold, the person I sold it to sent it to PSA and they told him it was altered stock but I know for fact that is impossible because my grandfather pulled that card out of a pack himself and the card was passed down to my dad then to me. I think PSA is playing the resub game. I will refund the person if they want but it PISSES me off SO MUCH that PSA play's these games. I am even more angry because I know the card is not altered or trimmed in anyway. I will never do business with PSA again

Does it measure up to the textbook size? (the card, that is)

[sportscollector]

yeah it measures perfectly the card is a solid EXMT+++ Near Mint Card. I feel bad for my customer I think I will refund him and split his grading fee's I will get the card regraded and just keep it.

[DerekMichael]

you should keep it! that is so cool that it has been passed down from your grandfather, to your father, to you ... it is so gorgeous and just seems like a total keeper.

awesome card!

[EvilKing00]

I would send it to SGC, when it grades at ...what??? a 6 or so, take a pic and send it to PSA, lol. Also maybe the buyer will want the card again.

Also...REAL nice card, and comming from your grandfather and then your dad now to you, is awesome.

uh-oh! that sucks! beautiful card!

What do you see that leads you to that decision?

[ullmandds]

looks a tad bit diamond cut to me...but unaltered?

Here's what I see in Photoshop, the center on the back top border is too white in some areas

[ullmandds]

i see/saw the white areas as well...could this card have been stored in an album?

I still think that's paper loss you're seeing. Here it is magnified...

Just because you, your father, or your grandfather says it's legit doesn't make it so. Also, wouldn't waste your time with TPGs other than PSA at this point in the game.

Just because PSA says "altered stock", doesn't make that so either. They make mistakes and miss judgement calls every business day and I'm a fan of PSA myself.

[ullmandds]

i think they dropped the ball on the cobb...I'm taking my ruth to sgc to have it graded while I wait...mis june...i'll let you know how it turns out!!!!! $75 grading fee while u wait!

You could actually send the exact same card to PSA again. Next time it might get a 7.

[Edwolf1963]

Here's what you do - start sending a lot of cards into PSA for grading, become one of their best customers and I'm sure they will regrade this one numerically. .. perhaps even a 10 if you send them enough business
