PSA 10 v PSA 9.5 v PSA 9

1952boyntoncollector · #1 01-16-2016, 06:51 AM

I have been hearing some cards that are PSA 10 being 'high end' PSA 10 and low end.....which makes me wonder why there are no PSA 9.5s

why not have PSA 9.5s for the PSA 10s that are 'low end' and just reserve PSA 10 for the best of the best cards......

Just wondering why PSA 9.5 don't exist... you would think they would get more resubmissions.....

When you say, "I've been hearing" are you referring to seller's saying in their listing that the cards they are offering are "higher end 10's"?

there are posts on net54..where people are saying the fact someone is saying 'higher end 10' or something to that effect shows how ridiculous a third party grade of 10 is......

I think psa should go to quarter increments:

10.25 = High end 10
10.00 = Mid grade 10
9.75 = Low end 10
9.50 = Super high end 9
9.25 = High end 9
9.00 = Mid grade 9.

That will solve all problems.

Better yet lets go to 1/8th's

10.125 = high mid grade 10
9.875 = low mid grade 10.

Yeah that's it lets go to 1/8th's

Or just keep the 100 pt scale that SGC started, but actually have grades for every number between 1 and 100.

I think they get enough resubmissions now. They just need to go to a 12 scale. 11 Pristine and 12 Perfect. Now that would clear up all the low/high end 10 confusion.
