PSA error in 1913 Nat'l Game Set: "Cobb"

I'm only dredging up this issue because it appears that the seller of the misrepresented card on eBay did indeed buy it because of the misleading label and is posting about it on a PSA message board:

Note: This topic may have been pulled from the PSA board by the time you read this.

Don't worry, I won't start another discussion about if it's Cobb and dirt dispersion in various wind conditions, etc.

But another black mark for PSA.

It appears the seller made an honest and understandable mistake and ended the auction when notified of the labelling error.

... I have heard some scoff at the commonly used statement, 'Buy the card, not the label.' The veracity of the phrase has never been made more obvious than in this case.
