PSA putting values on their own slabs, whether they be graded cards or packs - smacks to me of a conflict of interest. As has already been pointed out, the SMR has been rather notoriously inaccurate for years now. I don't know why anyone uses it or the online "price guides" which still exist in many forms for free. My local dealer is a good guy and for the most part his prices are fair, but I cringe every time I ask about him taking $10 less or so for something in the vintage case and he has to go dial up Beckett on the inter-webs. I'm like you know that's mostly a work of fiction right? I digress...
For any type of slabs I would think VCP or even an eBay completed auction listing is going to be way more accuratce. Does VCP do pricing for graded packs?
