This thread might end up being like the one on defining what a rookie card is or what is the best way to end an auction.

One thing is 100% clear in the hobby. We do not all agree on every point or every system. It is great that we have choices. And it is great that we come here to chat about those points of view.

As for the qualifiers I never minded them. If PSA did away with them or decides they want to do what is in the best interest of the card now...AWESOME!!!! I think they have a place in the hobby but I have always made adjustments for grading services that did not use them.

Bottom line for me is that I never have bought a card based on the label. And I never will. I decide for myself if the appearance is acceptable all things considered.
