Agreed. PSA 8s are on par with early PSA 9s now. You would have a VERY tough time getting your Collins bumped.

Sad to hear that its gotten this bad but I can believe it, especially now that things have picked up so much.

Appreciate the advice guys, even if it's not the news I was hoping for

The borders are too large for a 8.5-9.

So he should sent it to one of Probstein's friends?????

I don’t think there is any chance at all
That gets higher than an 8. Honestly looks properly graded to me. If not higher than it would get if sent in raw today. With that one corner a 7-7.5 wouldn’t shock me. Other three corners are mint.

You get a lot of sarcasm talking about PSA. But in all seriousness, it's an awesome card that looks great as a PSA 8. Best to leave it as is. People will pay top dollar for an 8 with large borders and great centering, so congrats.
