Everyone of us here is an absolute expert......

Maybe just put up a scan (front & back) and Im sure you will receive lots of marginal advice.

I'm pretty good as well, IMO.

lowpopper scored second overall in the PSA grading challenge at the last National, I believe.

Asking this website’s members if any are expert graders is equivalent to asking a prison’s inmates if there are any innocent people there. 100% response rate in both instances.

Just look at the BST section. Everyone claims their cards are undergraded, and their personal opinions on the true grades are more accurate.

And most are overgraded. It seems like every card is undergraded in the owner's opinion and overgraded in the buyer's opinion. Posting cards should get independent opinions. I used to run ads in SCD and never had a comlaint about my grading.

This is true. Seems those Purple Stickers might hold some water after all.
