 It turns out that this scepticism was justified. The ddevrad values for the stack photometry were incorrect (the difference in units between the sdss value (arcseconds) and the IPP values (pixels) was not accounted for. Upon further review we discovered that the wrong stacks (label SAS.20130620) were used for that investigation rather than the SAS 32 stacks (label SAS.20130703).
 
-In order to examine the results in more detail we re-ran the full force pipeline on a subset of the SAS skycells, selecting only deV models for forced photometry. Recall that by default the "best" of the three models fit during stack photometry is used.  The skycells chosen were near the center

+We find that the lowest chi squared fit is shifted slightly to the left indicating that we get a larger raidus. Interestingly this effect is larger for the bright objects.

+Here is the plot of the magnitude differences.
