lol kind of cool.

I actually thought they forgot to send this card back to me because I only had a stack of slabs.

That's kind of funny.

EBay 1/1

That’s hilarious.

Also, why would you ever send that card to get graded in the first place?

This is the best possible outcome IMO.

Wondering the same thing. It’s so off center and obviously miscut.

probably some dude's/duddette's first day... QA1 and QA2 probably started ribbing on the guy/gal! They probably figured it was no harm since the label doesn't mislead. Figure a reason they don't do this is because they don't charge you the grading fee on min size.

Time for PSA to add at least three more quality control steps. Two is just not enough for them.

I would be listing this on eBay and other places. Make PSA give you a decent amount of money to make this mistake disappear.

You grade 1,m cards a month these things will happen,not excusing it just saying its reality.someone probably called out sick and the janitor had to fill in,he was just told "put the label in,put the card in and press the button.he also must have be qc that day.

id like to believe it was something like that, as the other option is plain incompetence.unfortunately we all know that its incompetence and not some 1 off.but PSA sell for more so nothing to see here,any other tpg all the posts laughing it off when its PSA would be telling us all how were all stupid for using anyone not named PSA.

When we all know those same guys if and when PSA falls out of favor will be the first to jump ship.bunch of hypocrites.

Another QC foible.

There really is no excuse for that to happen, but clearly whoever was in charge of slabbing that day wasn't looking at the labels.

And no surprise, but the QA steps really are for show. They may check higher dollar cards during QA - mostly for upcharges and down-grading, but PSA is definitely not checking every "common" lower-dollar card for accuracy / errors.
