I was curious what you guys would do. I was recently going through my cards and noticed this small fleck inside the case on the bottom right. I can move it around by tapping the side but cannot get it off of the card itself. Would you guys send this back in or just deal with it. I've had this card for some time and don't plan on selling it. Thanks for any suggestions!

I never had an issue anything like this, but who knows how does it react with the card foil over a long period of time. The worst thing I can imagine is that it will cause slight discoloration in its spot, over a long period of time. I am talking years, decades. If you do not intend to keep the card forever, I would not be bothered about it. The next guy might want to reslab it for whatever reason anyway.

Isnt a re-slab about $5 or so? I would do that. I would look at that every time I picked up the card.

I would send it back because it's a quality control issue and their fault for leaving something like that in the case.

Next time it will pry come back with a pubic hair in it.
I've seen a lot of hair in bgs/psa cases...

Looks like a LeBron booger.
Sell as 1/1

I sent in a few cards to PSA last year and had the same problem with debris in the case itself. Happened more than once. I noticed right away each time and sent them back for a free reholder. Still, it was incredibly annoying and inconvenient. If it bothers you at all, I would send it in to be reholdered. I would contact PSA via email and explain the situation. They will likely want pics of the card with the debris clearly visible so that they have a reference for exactly why it needs to be reholdered. Once they see it, they should accommodate you. No guarantees of course.

It looks to be a piece of fabric, which would have been PSA's fault and I would expect they would re-slab the card for you based on it being a quality control issue.

No kidding, I have a topps Shaq RC in a BGS case with two nose hairs on the front of the card.

I would try light hitting the holder against your hand to see if that little thing on the card will move and sit on section of the holder that does not touch the card

Gonna just have to deal with it. Sucks when a company who's sole purpose is to PROTECT and encase cards, manages to screw that part up. If that was on the card, you would have got a PSA 8, damn grading companies!

I would be shocked if PSA wouldn't re-slab that for you for free. There might be some shipping costs involved, but I doubt PSA wants that kind of bad publicity when it's clearly their fault.
Just my two cents.
