There has been an incredibly marked increase in the number of 'lower' graded cards on display and up for sale at the shows I've been to recently. The vast majority of the PSA cards fit into the 'Frontsixer' category, where they were graded very recently (as seen by cert numbers beginning with a 6). Harshness definitely abounds!!
745. “Four is the New Seven” (adage)
As old cards are regularly being hammered by the new brutality of the TPGs, lower slab numbers are not only the order of the day, but are now more acceptable to collectors than ever before.
