1. This seller has a top notch eye for condition and has a huge pool of cards from which to select, and only sends in the best of the best.
2. This submitter gets preferential treatment and higher grades than you or I would get for the same cards.
3. The cards being submitted are being cut from a sheet in a way that PSA can't detect or PSA no longer has the expertise or time to detect and reject. The submitter themselves may not be doing the cutting, and may have no knowledge of it.
These are not accusations -- merely discussing the possibilities. That is an amazing submission result, to say the least!

1 and 2 are not mutually exclusive. Given how arbitrary the difference between a 9 and a 10 is, it seems hard to fathom a 97 percent rate of 10's in the ordinary course.
