Posted By: <b>barrysloate</b><p>I think this is the 100th post- a milestone! I agree the quality control should be better and I'm sure PSA is addressing this- certainly more time should be spent on an N172 John Ward than a modern rookie card- and the "hands on hips" label is just too goofy. All businesses strive to improve their product- PSA is no different.

Posted By: <b>warshawlaw</b><p>PSA's lead card-shucker has no idea what she is opening (or so she testified) and frequently has to look at the Becketts to find info to input the cards into the computer. I assume that since she is head shucker, her subordinate shuckers are even worse. I suppose it is wishful thinking to hope that the people handling the cards have a clue as to what they are...<br /><br />What this would mean is that the errors are at the intake level initially when the items are entered into the computers by the package shuckers. Of course, if this is so, it means that the graders either don't care or don't spot errors. The alternative would be that the errors are made when the labels are created, which means that someone is re-entering data. Since I suspect that this sort of wasteful secondary data input does not occur (I'd bet everything is entered once then revised as grading and serial #ing takes place), I suspect the former is the case and the graders have the description errors in front of them but don't pick up on them. Just like they don't pick up on Mayos and OJs with no ads. <br /><br />

Posted By: <b>Anonymous</b><p>There used to be a time when I wanted to take a PSA holder, turn it sideways & stick it up the grader's _____, but I never had the guts to do that lucky for them....

Posted By: <b>Scott Forrest</b><p>rather than have key cards flagged in their d.b., they could have dollar-value - any time a label was printed (or card input), items over $xxxx amount would set off a warning message, asking for a double-check. <br /><br />as a former programmer, this all seems to easy.
