    Is something wrong with this card?

    It's a T213, not a T206. Same image, different text color and reverse.

    Oh. I guess that is a pretty dumb mistake for PSA to make.

    Card looks fine to me. So long as they're tobacco cards, is it that big a deal?

    Right now I'm sending back a 1978 Topps Steve Largent that was mislabelled 1977 Topps Steve Zabel. Same card #, different year. I wouldn't be so upset if it didn't say STEVE LARGENT along the top of the card in 1/4" high lettering.

    Seriously. The chimps in labeling/quality control obviously need more rigorous training.

    Here's a current auction, although I have doubts about this one.Looks like a fake flip on top of another flip.

    What i dont get is that both cards are listed wrong by the sellers...Specially on the second one you will think they would notice.

    True. Some of the blame has to go to Superior Sports on the Cobb mix-up.

    Ya know, I consider myself a PSA loyalist and realize there is going to be some degree of inconsistency when it comes to the grading. But the labels better be perfect, especially on a high profile set like the T206 or when the information is right there on the freakin' card (e.g. the aforementioned Largent). This is just slipshod work. I feel so good that I just renewed my membership this week.

    "chimps need training.... "

    That is some rude -ish to compare a chimp to a psa grader ...
