TPG's and 1962 Green Tints, A Sad Tale

[4reals]

Love your insight on the topic Darren, thank you!

Glyn---If they have one guy who looks at the card and says it is an 8 but offers no opinion on how to otherwise classify the card, and a second guy who knows nothing about cards classifying it, that makes me even happier that I never got into graded cards.

But, to me it is and always has been a hobby. If I were in cards as a business or an investor, I guess I would be stuck with them.

Darren, not too much to add here except that I have found quite a few miss labled by TPG's on ebay as well. Very suprising/disappointing given your work has shown that there are tell-tale signs to identify these with 100% accuracy.

An opinion is only as reliable as the person giving it. Some great questions/issues raised earlier in the thread.

Darren, please send that 'Official Green Tints Guide' to PSA QUICK! On Saturday, I sent a PSA graded Braves Team Green Tint in as a Mechanical Error (Flip did not state Green Tint) back to PSA to have it annotated correctly. Now I am not so sure the graders will even know that there was an error done in the first place--they may send it back as it is now.

Al, thanks. Darren sent me the photos with the differences marked previously. I used that to definitively identify my 1962 cards. Since I have the scan, I will try to email in to PSA. I wish I had just printed out a copy and taped it to the slab.
