PSA Strikes again!!!!

[LEHR]

Just resubmit the card and it will probably get slabbed. Back when I used to submit cards and play the grading game I once subbed a card to PSA four times to get it in what I thought was the correct holder. It came back 1. Min Size Req. 2. Min. Size Req. 3. PSA 7 and finally 4. PSA 8. And from my personal experience SGC isn't any better. This is the reason I stopped subbing cards ten years ago and now just buy cards already slabbed in the grade I want.

Good luck if you send it in again.

I like my collection in SGC slabs. That's the reason for cracking it out. I will never submit to PSA. I will sell the card on the board with the explanation.

I know of cards that ended up in 8s or even 9s that along the way were rejected multiple times or graded as low as 4. There's an illusion of accuracy when you see any one card at one time, but it isn't necessarily so.

A bit OT - Have always wondered

If you submit a slabbed card (say PSA) and ask for a minimum cross over grade -

do they record the serial number when rejecting so that if it ever comes in again they simply look up in database and summarily reject again?

Is it possible SGC gave it a 'min size' because o.p. asked for a grade of 35-40 ? That is, to get that grade the card must be a certain size. A simple google/bing image search will bring up a bunch of SGC graded cards that are most certainly smaller that the one posted. Course most of the grades on those cards are 20 or lower.
