+1. Especially if that card was graded a few years ago. Th whole thing is out of control. If you got a 9 or 10 graded from several years ago, you can get it into a new holder at the same grade, even though the grading standards may have changed.
Look at that 1 of 1 PSA 10 OPC Gretzky that recently sold. Just by looking at it, it's not a "perfect" card. I've seen too many nicer 9's and even some 8's that would compete with or beat it, condition wise. And that is 10 years after 1969.
