Submitting cards for graded review at PSA

[MattyC]

PSA as I understand it has greatly shifted their stance on reviews, and are no longer looking to admit they screwed up the first time. What's more, to discourage cracking and resubbing, they will run a card through a new recognition process that will tell them if it has been graded before— at which point if no doctoring is detected they'll presumably put it in the same grade it was in prior.

Apparently some of the new powers that be realized how it undermines their brand, for cards to get many different grades from the same company over the course of many resubmissions and reviews. Too bad this stance is powerless to erase the millions of times in history that millions of cards have been graded multiple times, receiving several different grades.

They can try and set their opinion is stone, as it were, but end of the day as Jeff Lebowski put it, "That's just like, their opinion, man." And opinions being like a$$holes...we all know how that saying goes. Sure, in this case their opinion can be worth a lot of money, but the good news there is that the collectors who comprise the market often now pay premiums for eye appeal, and so undergraded cards get their due.
