It's hard to start a grading company by rejecting a card.

hahahahahaha

I wonder if the PSA Auth population category is exploding in cards across the board..

And I wonder how many people have started buying up PSA A cards this summer, realizing the cards are frequently identical in condition to those that sell for 100x as much.

I think they should relabel the card (I would think it's obvious the card should be labeled accurately), but that it wouldn't be a financial issue for PSA as the card will likely retain it's value (though that's a question to be tested).

The card is unique, so 8 to AUTH valuation change (or lack thereof) on that exception-to-the-rule isn't a general test.

In my opinion most or all of the value now is in the card's notoriety. I don't think putting it in an AUTH flip would matter.

I actually think the card's value will go down in value with time. The notoriety and famous history is part of the mystique, but so was that it was the "highest grade Wagner."

Its value has shot straight up despite everyone including every purchaser since Copeland knowing it was sheet cut and trimmed. Kendrick could flip it now for 3x what he paid I bet.

Agreed. I think this particular card transcends the holder.

id actually rather have touched up A card with white borders and looks not trimmed even if trimmed and not creased up versus a lot of PSA 1s that are all beat up and tangled up and creased

Lots of A cards do sell more for '1's and '2's
