I do not need or want fast and inexpensive grading if the results of such are cards in 5s/6s that should be lock 7s.

Several have noticed this, along with me. Also, what's with so many 'A' grades? I bought 2 raw '55 Bowman cards last year from the original owner, an Aaron and a Mantle. Both cards were crisp with minimal wear. The Aaron has a bad miscut on the back, so I was unsure how that would grade and they gave it a '5'. The front looks more like a '6-7'. The Mantle had a slight bend (not a crease) along the top border and I was expecting a '5'. It came back 'A' for some reason, so I cracked it out and now it's in a PSA 5 holder.
