IamlowcPSA has made their reputation, it is evident on Ebay. Dollar for dollar, card for card PSA cards sell for more than there counterparts more often than not. That is the industry talking.
True that PSA has lost some key graders but I cannot believe that there are only two reliable graders in the entire industry. Case in point, when I by a card from BMW, they tell me what grade that card should get and the cards have graded 90% of the time exactly the way they told me. The other 10% graded higher. Samething when dealing with Levi/707. What I am trying to say is that private dealers are offering raw cards that they believe will grade NRMNT - Mint and the cards grade NRMT-Mint by PSA, then PSA must be doing something right.
I can understand people not liking some of PSA downfalls, like service turnaround but I chalk that up to heavy business from tons of submissions not because they want to be slow or don't have adequate graders, that's absurd.
This is just my opinion.
