Default Should Registration Factor Into the Grade?

Posted By: ItsOnlyGil

Gentlemen, imho statements such as "I think grading companies do account for registration - however, it is merely one factor out of many that are considered and its not weighted any greater than a crease, a wrinkle or centering".
are intermingling factors relevant to card preservation with those associated with card manufacture.
These are two seperate subjects, and should be addressed seperately (with dual grades).

ie, seperate elements of manufacturing inadequacies, which affect value
from those of wear/damage, which also affect value.

This grading is already too much of an alchemist's brew.
