randWhy did PSA resist on the 1/2 grade system for so long? all their competitors used them from the get go.
i will go out on a limb here. in reference to Marshall's remark about the 10% average upgrade.. along with Jim blindly sending in 300 cards at a time... i think what the difference here is Jim doesnt have the time to re-examine his cards to determine in they are worth sending in (a real chance of upgrade) since he is not being charged for them. whereas marshall is reviewing his cards (to his opinion) that the have a very good chance of a bump.
this is not sarcastic, but if Jim had to pay $10 per card for a reviewal he would be looking them over, and not sending 20,000 cards in for the heck of it.
