Default PSA 10 Mark McGwire that is clearly off-centered

If there ever was a buy the card and not the holder, I imagine this might be it.
To have this happen to one of the most iconic modern key RC's in the hobby is pretty ridiculous. Someone actually paid $838 for that McGwire, and in reality this card would likely not meet the criteria to receive a 7. Is that an oil stain I see on the back of the card? Good grief...how would PSA explain something like this? I understand that mistakes get made, but this is pretty bizarre. I wish I could say it was the first time I've seen it, but it's actually very common.

Thanks for sharing.

Cheers,
Ricky
