how low can they go?

The post about gluing a card back together raised a really interesting issue: what does a "1" grade mean and how should it be used? I raise the issue separately because I have seen more than one card with chunks missing from it or major tears graded a "1" by SGC (check their pop report for N310 Corbett cards--the "1" listed there was missing two chunks) and someone in the recent gluing thread mentioned that PSA had graded a Mantle that had been glued together. |

PSA won't grade a card that has been torn in half and then put back together with glue. I would like to see that. There is a PSA grade lower than PSA 1. It is PSA AUTH. It means the card didn't meet PSA 1 standards and it is Authentic. |

I wondered the same thing myself. Why is a trimmed card ungradable, yet a strip card that ahs been cut from it's panel or strip ok to grade? I've seriously considered trimming the w572 Grover Alexander I have becuase the boarders are fat and would go from being Ex to NM+ by being trimmed and the slabbers would have no problem with it being trimmed and 'in spec' since it's a strip card. |

If nothing else, I'd like to see the slabbers at least offer the option of slabbing a trimmed card or not. If someone submits a card and still wants it slabbed even if it's trimmed make it so that all they have to do is check a box that you want it slabbed. That way, people that want all their cards slabbed can get them slabbed and those don't want trimmed cards slabbed, it will still let the slabbers make their extra money for not having to provide the full service they are offering. |

I have sent 4 T213-3 Coupons to SGC from 3 different sources that all came back "trimmed". I have a fifth now from a fourth source. Wagers on if it comes back "trimmed"? MW? LOL |
