Default Steve Novella's PSA 8 T206 Auctions--A Market Defining Event?
Posted By: Joann

Another question out of curiosity for Jim - related to the one Barry just asked, and I've been wondering. Why 8? Why not have the cut off be at 7, or 9?

I reside in the VG to EX neighborhoods in card collecting, so I can kind of tell the visual difference between cards in those ranges. I don't see cards in person that are above a 5 or 6, and from scans I honestly can't tell a 9 from a 7.

So is there something about 8's visually that causes you to pick that as your cut off? Or, put another way, what do you see when you see a 7? A 9?

Thanks,

J
