I might be more inclined to pay a premium for a 10 if PSA hadn't moved the goalposts on us multiple times and then demonstrated absolute incompetency since the pandemic with respect to grading. The number of truly pristine cards (even under 30x magnification) I've seen in PSA 9 holders in the last year or two is absolutely bonkers. I used to average ~86% gem rate with my PSA submissions on modern cards. My last bulk submission with them was about 30%. I'm done sending them cards, and I'm done chasing 10s. Now I look for gem mint cards in PSA 9 holders (and even some in 8 holders).
