I think this is the misinterpreted thought when people get the notion that Psa docks two grades from a card if you ask for no qualifiers. I believe the two grade dock only applies to off center and possibly miscut cards. This false interpretation is why a lot of people know to ask for the qualifier on a card with a mark because a Psa 6(mk) slab probably looks better and should sell higher than a card with no qualifier that is correctly graded in a 1.5 slab. The two grade dock for qualifiers is a loose guideline, but doesn't apply necessarily to cards with ink or eraser marks.
