Ladies and gents; these are the backgrounds of some of the graders grading your cards!

And he's probably at this point one of the better, most experienced ones. This is one of the astonishing aspects of PSA's success and market domination, that in almost every instance we have NO idea who is grading the cards or their qualifications. It doesn't even matter. All that matters is the flip.
