RickI think as a seller you can actually hurt your reputation by selling "dogs"
Wether you think that by having the card graded you can simply say its not your fault..its just not right.
If i summited that card ..I would send it back to PSA...get either money or free subs..work something out rather than sell a grossly overgraded card.
Its an ethical flaw for seller ...he saw the card ..he knew it was it either a mistake or just gross negligence...he decided to sell it as a higher grade than it deserved and collect quickly.
In the coin hobby there are well known "problem coins" that have somehow made it holders...some dealers refuse to work with these coins and there are other dealers who are known to handle these coins and passed them on to inexperienced collectors who will trust the holder.
All grading companies will make mistakes ...We can limit the effect these mistakes can have on the inexperienced collector and avoid a painful and costly learning experience.
