Not the best scan, but to be fair, left and right edges both look fairly rough. That card actually looks like a solid 10, not sheet cut, all things considered.

As somebody who has never sent in anything for grading, I'm blown away by what some of these "10's" go for.

#1 we all would love a truly objective way to quantify a cards' condition, etc. yet this cannot exist and psa like any other co. is an imperfect co. to offer such a service

#2 joe sounds very defensive which indicates he is trying to hide something

#3 card grading can allow one to miss the point of collecting in the first place i.e over-emphasizing condition rather than the subject of the card

If you are selling PSA 10's, get a decent scanner!

That would only make sense if you're under the impression that people are buying the card, not the holder. Just think how many more PSA10's you could get graded at the cost of a good scanner.

I'm sure the purists on the board crack open all their PSA 10 holders so they can feel the cards.

I heard all the purists are closet PSA 10 collectors.

This whole psa debacle wreaks! Nothing new at all...all that goes up...well y'all know how this ends!

[lsutigers1973]

Not a big secret but we had a group sub on CBT last month. I sent in a card that I know was trimmed. Watched it get trimmed. It's in a PSA 9 holder now. In the same sub, I had two 1971 Topps PSA 8 crackouts that got an EOT.

The trimmed PSA 9 will be on eBay soon with a large disclaimer.

But it's a PSA 10, so it HAS to be perfect, therefore you don't even NEED a scan...
