I doubt the Mr.X Plank is trimmed. More often than not PSA get's it right. Of course that could mean 49% are wrong....just kiddin'. I would imagine the vast majority are fine. I do think they don't know vintage as well as SGC but we have pretty much not only beat, but buried, that horse. As for the Mr.X designation I don't think it's a great idea. Yes, marketing and hype can help sell stuff but I don't think this sets a good precedent. When I sell my collection am I going to get PSA (right?) to put "From the Leon Luckey Collection" on it? Or if Tbob sells his is he going to get the "From the Trophy Bob Collection" on those holders? I hope not. I can see it now...every darn screwball now wants his name on a stupid holder. And I think someone said "PSA holders sell better". My only question is what did the holders grade? "Blurry 8", or "warped 7", how about "scratched 6". Can you actually slab a holder? The more I am in the hobby the less I like grading.... regards
