Andy Broome is their vintage guy and he worked at PSA as a grader at one time. I know from the vintage I've submitted to them the grades are accurate and/or maybe even slightly conservative.

I had a 1948 Leaf - Jackie Robinson that was a BVG 4.5 and every single person who saw the card said it looked at least a full point better than that.

Obviously with the inherent bias in the industry, you're not going to get maximum possible value for the card, but there is definitely inconsistency that exists with PSA and how they view certain aspects of cards - namely centering.
