This is so unfortunate. It seems like there is no end to the alterations & PSA's inability to spot them. It's not only the high grade collectors that are harmed. It's everyone.

Yes, such a tragedy that they would ruin a piece of history like this Tolstoi Cobb...

The card doctor scraped off the bottom-left portion of the back, and somehow pressed and colored the top two corner creases + associated damage.

Hopefully the purchaser gets the message, and can instigate a prompt return. If PWCC won't comply, then eBay's Buyer Protection Policy should cover it. Either way, the odds are far better than acting upon PSA's stated "guarantee".

Will EBay honor a return on a purchase from 2 years ago?

Doubtful. If the buyer wants I'm pretty sure I'd pay what it sold for in 2017 without even looking it up. I don't think he will have any trouble getting out of this one even if the alteration is disclosed.

Just pass it on, huh? I'm guessing you wouldn't mention anything.

It was cleaned up and bumped from a 1 to a 2. Assuming I bought it and later sold it I'd have the before and after shots in the listing. But it's still a nice looking low grade card. I'd probably hold onto it.

I actually assumed these had been going up as much as other t206 Cobbs the last couple years. But even at what this sold for I think the buyer is fine.

You may be the kind of person who would pass something like this on to the next guy. From your response I'd bet on it. I am not.

I apologize. I misunderstood your previous post.
