PSA Photo Submission Question

[gnaz01]

How does one get a photo encapsulated in the PSA holder. The last few times I have sent in for Type 1 authentication, all it came back with was a letter stating so. I love the holders because I can pick them up and show them off (I know I can do that with a top loader but want to show both the PSA designation and the photo).

Thanks,
Greg

They no longer encapsulate them. It used to be that they would only encapsulate photos if they were 8 x 10. But they don't even do that any longer. They were supposedly getting damaged in the holder.

Thanks, Bob. Didn't know that.

I heard that the company that they were buying the holder from was going out of business.... I know initially the typing on the holder would rub off easily. I liked th0se holders too. I was waiting for a smaller holder but they would only encapsulate 8x10.

the company that made the holders is no longer in business and that is why they no longer encapsulate the photos. Maybe someone can get PSa in touch with a company that could make these holders.

To me that sounds like a crazy reason not to encapsulate anymore. There are more than a few different brands of holders being made. I would hope they would find another IF that business is profitable to start with.
