pretty soon they will be grading the color of the color photographs, they will have separate color designations, brilliant, dazzling, and *'ing unbelievable. of course thats for an extra fee also.

My collection is entirely raw.
The "crazy nonsense" mentioned by travrosty isn't that TPA's change their system and charge people "again".
The "crazy nonsense" is solely that people pay in the first place.
If I owned PSA, I would be preparig to go to a decimal system, as soon as I thought the half point system had made as much money as it could.
Couldn't get your 8 changed to an 8.5 last time? No worries, maybe it can get an 8.4 this time. Cue evil money counting grin and laugh.
I won't end by typing the phrase "what a bunch of dorks", because some might find it offensive.
