One thing that hasn’t been mentioned and is relevant, is today’s trading. I used to do a lot of trading but today most younger traders only want PSA 8 or 9 or 10. This goes along with today’s buyers. Traders want to trade for the high graded cards because they think they can flip them for a big price. Lost is the fun of trading – found is only “what can I sell it for”.
it seems to me the younger generatiion only wants 10's. they even shun 9's.
