To finish Corey's thought: if this resubmission were done fairly, with cards getting higher or lower grades based on merit, only a small fraction would be sent in. But with nothing to lose except the grading fee, the number of submissions increased dramatically.
Here's my beef with the whole thing: if a grader were reassessing a card and he felt it was a tad overgraded, closer to a 7.5, and was still forced to put it back in an 8 holder, I'm okay with that. Grading is subjective enough that a 7.5 is about the same as a weak 8. But invariably the grader is going to find cards that were altered, the alteration having been missed the first time around. To recirculate such a card back into an 8 holder is plain unethical. But according to the rules, that is what he has to do. I know this has absolutely nothing to do with Jim's question, Did I make a good trade? But sometimes I like to vent.

QUOTE] Barry & Corey, does any other grading company lower the submitted cards when sent in for review? I have sent in a few cards for review w/ various grading companies & only ones that I thought would warrant a higher grade as I though these were undergraded. No way would I expect them to lower the grade when I felt the exisiting grade was too low. Last edited by Jay Wolt; 02-04-2011 at 11:49 AM.
