By being in complete denial (and trying to limit their own liability), PSA continues to create a huge credibility problem for the hobby.
Sure, AJ can sell the card with full disclosure. Very commendable on his part.
But what about the next seller. And how about the seller after that? At what point does the card change hands without any proper disclosure? There is absolutely no doubt that this altered card will remain in circulation with zero disclosure at some point in time. Someone will ultimately get burned for many thousands of dollars.
A huge disservice to the hobby, courtesy of PSA. The fact that they can ignore obvious "before and after" evidence doesn't surprise me in the least. But it is still a self-serving and bitter disappointment.
