So they don't even use SMR for their own valuation when determining an upcharge.

When I contacted PSA they say they use actual auction data to determine value.

I don't know why they dont just get rid of SMR all together.

What a load of Bull Schite that is - FFS!

There is no doubt in my mind that PSA continues to lose market share on probably a daily basis and their resolution to this problem is to continue to gouge their existing customer base to make up for the shortfalls.........

Not playin any more..............
