Dave made his intentions clear and everyone had ample time to make him an offer he couldn't refuse. No one did, so he went through with his stated plan. He was doing what he thought was right, regardless of possible financial gain or being complicit in the forwarding the anti-PSA agenda so pervasive in some pockets here.

IMO anyone who, for any reason, owns and refuses to crack out a single PSA card, shouldn't cast stones here.

I see an honest opinion. Frankly, I kinda agree with it. I may not have said "you fucked up" (and it was written "with all due respect"), but yeah, I kinda think he fucked up. Anyway, the owner sees the humor in it because he's posted that he's not going to be able to retire off of the cash he would have gotten for it.

Perhaps repeatedly poking fun at the TPGs by posting that glaring mistake, over and over again might actually make them try harder (not to FUCK UP). Ok, perhaps that's a stretch...

Means absolutely nothing. People are lined up at the doors of PSA and wrapped around the building about ten times with wallets wide open. PSA is struggling to take that cash fast enough right now. If they can shave a second or two off each assesment they have a clear incentive.

This doesn't make sense to me. what good does cracking out a card do? If it's a horribly comical mistake, cracking it out ruins it. If it's all good, then all cracking it out does is make it more likely someone will give the clueless company money to look at it again.

I have a handful of PSA cards, maybe 5 or 6. I've given them all a good look, and aside from slight disagreement over one grade I think they got those few correct.

Heck, I haven't bothered cracking this Acu-Card example that I'm sure is trimmed on all four sides. (I'd be very happy to be proven wrong but I'm not. )
