Why their customers do not believe PSA should be competent and keep throwing piles of extra money at cards that bear their approval is where it makes no sense. Taking advantage of this is in PSA's interest, and making money is the entire point for everyone. But almost everyone appears to certainly be aware this all rests on a bedrock of bullshit and these opinions they are throwing cash at are often demonstrably false. If logic or truth ever enters the equation or people's brains, and they question how wise this is and stop, the entire thing collapses.
Well said.
