Default Graded cards

Posted By: Greg Ecklund

Toby, what were the specfic problems with PSA graded cards that inspired you to post about them?

From my experience with them, the biggest surprise when buying PSA cards can be paper loss. I have purchased several 4's and 5's that have paper loss on the back, and it has been a rather unpleasant surprise as I try to avoid paper loss at all costs, even on the blank backed cards.

With the volume of cards PSA grades, I can certainly understand a very occasional mislabeling of an American Caramel as a National Caramel or missing a light crease here and there, but grading a card with obvious paper loss a 4 or 5 is pretty incompetent.
