I think I am a victim of this. I just received a PSA 9 Shining Kabutops, which i ordered before going on vacation, and there is no way it should have received a PSA 9. It has edge wear/ discoloration and dirt spots on the card. I think PSA is slipping up on grading some of these cards. The picture of the listing did show any of theses flaws and I guess assuming that it would be in mint condition since it was a PSA 9 card was not the brightest idea.
We are all victim of it. I did a similar mistake on a BGS card purchase. I let the subgrades blind me… They even dared give the edges a 10 grade and it has some awful whitening. The picture did show that wear too so I’m the one to blame here.
You could send it back to PSA, but as was just stated above, if it’s too much of a close call it’s rare that PSA will acknowledge their mistake and it’s probably not a very big price difference?
I think it is quite obvious with the flaws the card has, the seller does have a 14 day return policy so I may return it even though i really hate to be the guy to do that, but the pictures literally didnt show these flaws. What did you end up doing with the BGS card!

I guess I misread your post, I thought you said the flaws were noticeable from the pictures. Definitely return it then.
I’m keeping my BGS Chansey. After some recent increases in PSA prices, I think it ended up a good buy even if I don’t agree with the grade.

Yeah I see, that make sense!
