PSA moved the goalposts from their initial standards by a full grade prior to the pandemic, around the mid 2010s. They have since moved the goalposts by another full grade. They're just ridiculous now. An absolute clown show in the grading room. It's really not difficult to grade vintage cards, and it's not difficult to maintain a consistent standard. Yet, here we are. Soon, PSA will have to introduce the 0 and -1 grades in order to make room for the new goalposts. I've been buying dead mint cards in PSA 6 & 7 holders and EXMT cards galore in PSA 4 slabs. I'm buying hoards of recently graded cards entirely because of it. Eventually, they're going to have to correct this. They're getting a lot of heat about it. Publicly, they keep trying to pretend like it isn't true, but at some point they're going to have to face reality. When they put the goalposts back where they belong, I'll resub my under graded hoard.

I will never understand people who complain about these companies while boxing up their next submission.

![]() I just wish PSA would hurry up and undergrade my card and send it back. ![]() I was actually very happy with my last submission as I cracked out 3 newly graded SGC cards and all 3 received higher grades from PSA. Two of the 3 became PSAs highest graded examples. ![]() |

Grading is subjective.
The goal posts will always be on wheels. |
