1. This seller has a top notch eye for condition and has a huge pool of cards from which to select, and only sends in the best of the best.

2. This submitter gets preferential treatment and higher grades than you or I would get for the same cards.

3. The cards being submitted are being cut from a sheet in a way that PSA can't detect or PSA no longer has the expertise or time to detect and reject. The submitter themselves may not be doing the cutting, and may have no knowledge of it.

These are not accusations -- merely discussing the possibilities. That is an amazing submission result, to say the least!

Now that you mention this, I believe I remember seeing a very specific thread about a large submitter on the PSA boards. Numbers 2 and 3 and combinations of 2 and 3 were talked about. I don't recall option 1 being discussed at all other then in jest and a mocking manner. I seem to recall that the thread discussed a large submitter (I don't recall which one) and all the 10s they were getting at the time. A member had somehow linked them with the purchase of laser paper cutters, or something similar, which caused quite a stir. I'd go back and search for it and other related issues in the archives, but I am now banned and PSA poofed the thread I am referring to anyway. Does anyone here, also on PSA recall this?
