PSA Qualifiers

To me the centering one makes some sense -- centering is part of the original card -- but stains and marks are wear the card has incurred and therefore should detract from the grade.

But so are Print Defects (PD) and Out of Focus (OF). For me, distinguishing between what's part of the original card and what is not is an artificial distinction for grades. Just give me a grade for the card as it stands taking into account all issues.

Most people prefer no qualifiers. However, I prefer them to getting a 1.5 on a card with writing on it.
