No Minimum Grade at PSA?

Regular grading does not.

That’s what I thought, too, until I was notified otherwise by PSA this morning (see above).

I feel like someone made a mistake. My friend did a crossover with a min grade at the national. Wasn’t crossed and he was charged. Just like it’s always been.

I got lambasted last time I said this but I know of at least 2 instances recently of a psa reholder where they lowered the grade. And for those I inquiring, there appeared to be nothing wrong with the slab.

I don't believe these claims. I've heard them as well, but nobody ever provides evidence of it. And it is certainly not standard practice.

Snow, it’s not standard practice but I can promise you it has happened.

One member is on net54, one is not. They can post the results if they choose.

There is one way to see what happens For yourself. If someone has the Stones to submit an old graded say PSA 5 figure plus, high-end vintage card for reholder knowing themselves that the card would never grade an eight or in today's standards.

In no way will I take that gamble now.

Drew, did PSA compensate the two collectors for the value difference when PSA lowered the grade in the reholder service? Obviously this would be a situation where PSA is admitting they made a mistake.

I also have not heard of this happening.
