It's about the card that's in the holder. The question and answer both serve to highlight the fact that 3rd party grading has been subject to levels of significant inconsistency. I recall early on getting some cards graded and comparing them to other cards of the same grade and seeing clear differences back when. I don't know whether PSA used to be lax or now they are too harsh, but grading today is definitely different.
It has been discussed multiple times on the boards - BUY THE CARD NOT THE HOLDER. There are over/under graded cards in old holders and in new ones. As a general rule I look more carefully at cards in older holders as there tend to be more that I find that imo I would call over graded. |
