[QUOTE="baseball21, post: 3203128, member: 76863"]Absolutely, they have admitted that as well. The problem is that there are some that run around to various forums trying to trash PCGS more than any other grading company as well as the know it alls who think they're experts but aren't even close. As mentioned though in this case it's PCGS and CAC. Then it is also Legend who is very picky ect. Multiple actual real experts saw this one but posters saw a picture so they clearly must know better :rolleyes:. This is what I was referring to for humility earlier in the tread.
