This game didn't count? Tell that to the veterans this game supported!!!! PSA has got to be the most arrogant and egotistical grading company.

Pathetic Systematic Arrogance

That sucks tbh, not a big deal to add "Mays Fenway baseball debut", how does that hurt anyone? It also is informative. Any collector knows that this was a benefit game but facts are facts. If Mays played in the game and they have the "expertise" and I use that lightly to slab it then they can and should add that line about Mays.

My 2 cents.

Ha-Ha! I have to remember that one. This wasn't a big deal to add. They refuse to, because it's not an "official" game MLB recognizes. Obviously, MLB does (or did) recognize it, or the game would've never occured. In my opinion, this is much more important than any regular game, because it was played for a good cause. This game was also Karl Olson's very first game as a Red Sox. They also refused to acknowledge that, because it was not "offocial".

PSAs excuse is that they didn't want to "confuse" anyone.

[VintageHoarder]

It's like PSA is deliberately trying to make exhibition games inferior to MLB regular games for some reason.

[VintageHoarder]

But for what reason? Exhibition games are still a part of history and shouldn't be ignored, especially any that hold some historical significance.

Stop paying for their services. Enough of that and it will change attitudes. Until then, they know the masses will continue to pay.

I told them that they deserved to be boycotted. They have all that power gone to their heads and just decide they can treat customers however they please. Thats when you know it's time for people to start waking up and boycotting any and all businesses that don't do right by the customer. Thankfully, they haven't seen a penny of my money, and after this experience, they likely never will. They would have to drastically change for the better before I ever even thought to submit anything to them.
