BryanYou can do a search in the forum and get most of your questions answered about grading companies done that way. Everyone here has a different opinion when it comes to grading companies and there have been many, many threads created about the issue. I imagine that most people won't want to get into such a debate again. As for qualifiers on PSA cards. I have found that if you have one that it normally brings the value down one or two grades lower when trying to sell it. For example, if you have a PSA 8 (OC) it would normally bring the value down to a PSA 7 or even a 6 at times. Of course, this is just by my experience. Just a small note - I feel that SGC does a much better job of grading vintage material. I hope this helps.
