Hi Ben, I am sorry but there are no returns on graded cards. That’s the whole point of grading- we don’t have to haggle about condition. Your opinion about the card’s condition doesn’t matter (and my opinion doesn’t either). Only the opinion of the guy who graded the card is what counts. If this were an ungraded card I would gladly return your money and take the card back but I paid good money for the grading service and its sole purpose is to resolve condition disputes. That little corner issue is probably why the card was only graded an “8”. It would be a 9 or 10 otherwise (and worth about 10 times what you paid for it). I have sold thousands of graded cards on ebay over the years and have not had an issue like this and I feel it is not my duty to take back cards that you think are overgraded. Gord

There is a clear folded corner on the back of the card that I wasn't presented in the description or photos. I wanted to contact you to accept a return before having to go through eBay. Thanks. Ben Whitener

The seller will not have a choice but to accept this return once you allow ebay to decide the case. Ebay WILL decide this case in your favor once you turn it over to them. From there they will provide you a return label. The seller could try to say this is a case of buyer's remorse, but simply refer to his description of the corner in the description. If he does claim buyer's remorse, call and talk with a live CSR and explain what you have here.

I the seller has a point so far as the graded card goes, but I think you have a beef with TGC.

If he would have not said this in the description I might agree he has a point:
"1971 OPC Hrabosky rookie graded PSA 8. This is a great card with sharp corners and no creases, marks or stains. It has great color, focus and gloss and the back is clean."

The card clearly doesn't have sharp corners and it has a fold/crease. oh well...

Probably happened when slabbing...a shame

I'm just hoping some of my PSA 7 or 8 Mantle's don't have this same tampering "fix".
