……And the hits on the hobby keep coming! As I just read that PSA is now decertifying a lot of slabs that contain altered cards. That is a good thing for the hobby but sucks if you buy a graded card on eBay, then years later PSA decides to decertify it, you are left holding the hot potato!

Do we now have to look up PSA cert numbers first before we buy it? Ain’t no one got time for that!

It’s all a big mess that will come to a head one day…soon! With autographs being forged, to TPAs not being reliable, to cards being counterfeited, altered, trimmed to now PSA is decertifying certs. What’s left to collect when there is issues with everything in the hobby it seems! Yikes!

When does the PSA 8 Wagner get decertified? Till then to me it is just window dressing.

Agreed. Though the ultimate power move would be to crack it and resubmit it.

It would go at random to some kid who would give it a 4.

But first the submitter would probably be charged an arm and a leg for the privilege

It might take 10 seconds to look up a PSA cert. You must be really busy or something.

No, not at all. Just never looked one up. Don’t know the process but thank you for schooling me!

It's just a matter of opening the PSA cert lookup page, typing in the number, and hitting go. Very easy.

I didn’t know not was that simple to do. That doesn’t seem too bad. Thanks for teaching me. I appreciate it.

If you download the PSA app (assuming you have a smartphone), then you don't even have to type in the cert #. Just open the app and click the button to scan the barcode. Might take about 3 seconds total.
