A tradition that has been followed, it seems, until recently and not just high grade but mid grade too. I think they appear to be running a more legit operation under Turner in regards to blindly grading bad cards.

When one of the first cards that got graded, at the time, was valued at over a million dollars, they set that precedent by grading it an 8.
