Wrong year on PSA label - options?

Got a new Butler in for my registry today. Trouble is, it's labeled as a 1991 Bowman, when in fact it's a 1992 Bowman. Both years his card number was 597, which I'm sure is what caused the confusion (although all one had to do was look at the back to see it had 1991's stats listed). At any rate, does PSA reholder for free or for a small fee?

edit: the card is also misidentified in the registry. How easy is it to get them to change that as well?

    Geordie,

    Q: What should I do if my card is labeled incorrectly?
    A: PSA will correct, free of charge, any mislabeled items. Please fill out a submission form, mark "Other" as the service level, write in "Mechanical Error" and include a short note on the form describing the mistake. Be sure to write in the Declared Value for your item. If you are not a Collectors Club member, please contact Customer Service at (800) 325-1121 or info@psacard.com to have a submission form mailed to you. Please mark the outside of your shipping box “Mech. Error". PSA will fix the label and reholder your item in approximately 10 business days and ship it back to you free of charge.

    sheesh - I should have thought of looking up the FAQs before cluttering up the boards. Thanks for the heads up and gentle reminder, Jack.

    Geordie,

    No problem. To be honest, I came across the FAQ just today. I stumbled across it trying to find out what it takes to become a PSA Authorized Dealer. (I really don't want to be a dealer, only PSA Authorized Dealers can pick up their cards in person in lieu of return shipping and handling).

    P.S. I apologize if I offended you by the "read it" comment. After the post, I read it again and said, hmm, that didn't seem quite right.

    naw, I didn't take it that way at all. Thanks again for pointing me in the right direction. I'll call on Monday and ask them to send me a submission form.
