I once sent a black/white with backing silk to GAI for grading, the only company that grades silks(and BVG).

It had the typical center fold that the vast majority have - as it was packaged folded. GAI severely downgraded it for the fold - I told them to send it back unslabbed.

Are 90+ percent of black/white silks doomed for grading due to the way they were packaged with fold?

The colored silks seem to be more without fold - guess they were packaged completely flat ?
