Did you contact PSA because ebay would not allow you to return the item or because it was less hassle to have PSA just buy the card back?

So, what is the eBay username of the seller you bought it from?

So now you have an altered card in a PSA 8 holder, and you are going to sell it? Are going to disclose that the card is altered? If not, that makes you just as big of a crook as the person you bought it from. Not to mention that PSA shouldn't be in the business of altering cards.

This is wrong on so many levels that I can't believe this is happening.

The seller is "glabow" . It is hard to believe this card got an 8 in the first place.

It's actually a nice card considering 71 OPC other than the corner bend.
I doubt i will sell it since the only other 8 and lone 10 are owned by one guy that has no desire to sell ...and sadly high grades on the registry are addictive.

PSA mail day. I am not trying to throw PSA under the bus as I do believe they do a damn good job grading, but this does bring up some interesting questions concerning TPG's.
I looked at the "fixed" corner under magnification (loupe) and you can't tell the corner was tampered with. The images on the right are the card today.

I have folded some flaps over on raw cards so they look better in my binder, but to see that PSA does the same thing is mind boggling! I figured my cards after doing that were 3's or 4's at best!!!!

I can still definitely tell where it was, so that card doesn't deserve an 8 and you should be compensated for the difference.
