Grading anymore has extremely limited utility if you are still more of a collector than an investor. In a nutshell, yes - it's a crapshoot. I think we are at a point where more than ever before - the relationship between technical grading and eye appeal is at its most distant. I've seen cards that look like strong 6's come back PSA 3's, and others that look like they should be 3's get 4's. Who knows.
