The same would go for versions in a type of pack favored by the big pack busters, vs less popular pack types.
Steve, I can see your point. But in this day and age, everything goes into a top loader right out of the pack. However, maybe that's the way PSA figures it. I don't know. I intentionally picked two cards of the same vintage, so that the year of issue wouldn't figure into it.
