They can do that, when they are grading 1.5 million cards a month.

So PSA is going to give even worse service and charge more for it?

Makes total sense….

So at 1.5 million cards a month and lets pick a number - lets say they NET CLEAR $10 per card after expenses.

That calc comes out to a net profit of $15 Million (dollars - american) per month.

If I got that kind of cash laying around - I'm thinking that I might be able to hire another Grader or 2 (or 3). Yes?

Often it's a boom/bust cycle. Right now, we're towards the boom end. I suspect that they don't want to staff up just to have submissions drop, and then get caught with a bunch of graders sitting around with nothing to do.

Extra so if a lot of their graders are focused on ultra modern, which probably is the most prone to boom/bust cycles.
