Default Card grading

Posted By: David

Bruce, I haven't looked too closely at you page, but it appears you have done a commendable job. A great place for beginning card buyers (and especially sellers) to start. Nics pictures too.

Considering the (over)emphasis on graded cards and grading in the card hobby, I agree that it would be nice if PSA or Beckett issued a comprehensive guide on grading. I think it would sell too.

In the end, however, grading is in part subjective and not entirely quantifiable. Considering 'poor registration' means different things to different resonable people and there are nearing infinite degrees 'edge wear', in card grading sometimes 1 + 1 = 2, sometiems 1 + 1 = 1.80 .... But a useufull and detailed standard is still a good thing.
