Psa no longer putting qualifiers on labels

[Rich Klein]

If you are trying to catch up from a major overload, this was an easy decision to make. Frankly, it's overdue.

Not a fan of the change but I understand why they're doing it. It will now become more challenging to find diamonds in the rough and you'll see sellers start adding more opinion into their pricing to explain why their lower grade card has more qualities than it deserves.

I think it's a great change and overdue as well. Some of the qualifiers just didn't make any sense. For example, why would a PSA 1 card require a qualifier? 1 is the lowest grade you can get.

That sucks. I was hoping they would add some more qualifiers. I have a ton of mint cards if they would add (W) for wrinkles, (MC) but for Major Creases, (RC) for Rounded Corners, and of course (HP) for holes/hole punch.

So does that mean the guys who currently own PSA 5 (MC) can now send in for re-holder and have them come back as straight 3s? (yeeah)

Sure, but last I checked it was taking 7+ months just to reholder.

If they would just add a few new qualifiers and allow several per card we could both have Gem Mint PSA cards.

LOL looks like that version of Hank was partying with Jimi Hendrix.

If that was a 1969 Topps, I’d say it’s the Woodstock variation.

I opened a pack of 1955 Bowman and pulled a "mint" Whitey Ford that had a corner chewed off. Would that be a PSA 9 CH?

You should submit him with "Large Ass" Herzog; he's Gem Mint if you look past all the missing chunks.

SGC did a good job with the Herzog.
