Interesting stuff. I was a PSA member very early on and had some suspicion that cards were getting switched. Especially when I'd separate the perfect centered cards from the ones that were a bit off, then send in the centered cards and get back 8's and 9's that weren't centered. I also thought it was odd that they were always behind in grading, as if they needed the extra time to find card replacements. Unfortunately back then there were not many digital cameras that took good pictures and camera phones were not even a thing. So I was never able to prove it. My free submission and first paid submission were all Griffey Jr rookie cards.
