Maybe you guys should have tried a polite message to the seller instead of assuming evil intent. I contacted him through ebay, and he just wrote me back thanking me and ending the listing.

Peter many on this board as well as myself have bought cards (many 205's) from this seller as well as have met him personally and just can't imagine how that could get past him. PSA is nothing new but I can't imagine getting that card, grading it(if he did?), scanning the front and back as well as probably cropping it down, uploading the pic with a description, and then missing the damage/alteration to the card. The price was a steal also

The Walsh Blue OM didn't make it past him. Crap happens and I really do hope this was a blatant lack of focus that caused this and not something else. This is one of those times it pays to live by the motto "buy the card and not the holder".

I do hope we hear more on the outcome of this card.

Why then there would be no point to having two threads about this card and being able to trash PSA and the seller. Andrew in his rush to rant, started his own thread, failing to see this one was started a day earlier.

So Peter you are suggesting that people make an effort to try to be helpful privately and miss out on a chance to go on a public attack?

Greg,

In his defense, Andrew made his post about 30 minutes after I made mine.

Greg, if I suspected him of shill bidding I would have joined the lynch mob, next to that this seemed an unimportant offense that could be dealt with quietly.

Frank technically you posted yours the day before mine

I started the thread and got busy and came back to finish it. So in my defense I knew of no thread started already till it posted and I went back to the main forum. Either way this is not the first time we have had double post(sometimes hours and even a few days apart) about a card. Greg I'm not the only one ranting about this card but thanks for the recognition

I noticed that PSA also only has 1 altered Hoblitzell in their pop report. It is listed as a no stats. So not only is the label wrong, their pop report is wrong.

LOL - OK I think I have a soulution!

Feel free, (if you think this is a good idea) to run with this and make millions.

Maybe there should be a company that over sees the card grading companies , um almost like the health dept over sees resturants.

Hopefully the seller, who rightfully ended the auction, works with PSA to get it out of their holder. Mistakes happen and it's how they are handled that matters most. Plus, if I were PSA, I would check who inspected that card and give them some remedial training.
