Barry, I agree 100% with the concept. I also feel a weighted system makes sense even grading scores for centering and back damage. Why does a card receive the same penalty whether there's a paper tear on the back or the front? I know, some of you guys care as much about the back as the front so maybe not as good as example as the photo image.

1. If a weighted system were used photographic image could be 25% or more of the overall score

2. Card damage should be only 1/2 the penalty if it is on the back

3. Centering could carry more weight then say a minor softening corner

This is my grading system. I realize it won't work for most of you!

BTW, which card would you rather have?
