I've used PSA to slab a few tickets - and that's for protection - nothing else.....couldn't give a hoot about the grade they assigned to my tickets....
I've never - and will never send a card in for grading.....I am mostly a raw guy, but will buy some PSA slabbed cards IF - I LIKE THE CARD.....I've seen so many EX 5s that look no better than VG....Seen 8s that look like EX cards....and on and on...
I once bought a game used Ernie Banks bat back around 2005....The bat was absolutely killer.....When I received the bat from the auction company, there was a letter from PSA authenticating the signature on the bat......Problem was, there was no signature on the bat.....the bat was never signed.....
The Authentication program is worthless IMHO....As Yoda says, it just slows down the delivery.....
Buy the card.....don't buy the grade.....
