marshall barkmanRand.....you are 100% correct. I measure each card and also loop it to figure out if the card merits consideration for a bump. Sometimes a 8 can have perfect centering and razor corners and have a look to it that screams 9 but after carefully looping the card you notice a small chip in the back border that is hard to catch with the way the light hits the holder. If Jim is just sending in 20,000 cards blindly without reviewing them then that is ridiculous. It does not suprise me however because he wrote on the message board on a different post that he was interested in some of my Beauties in PSA 8 holders and possibly ending a few cards i was auctioning off on E-bay if i gave him a "good deal", not only did he not respond to two e-mails but he also has not won any of the cards that i have listed on E-bay. My thought is the guy is to cool for school and wants favorable treatment across the board. I have however sold 4 PSA 8's for over 300 dollars a piece to PSA set registry folks offline for fair market value who have e-mailed in regards to the same cards. If you want favors then tip the bellhop or cab driver.
