As always, thanks for the helpful information… I think I’ll submit old Johnny to SGC to see what we get.

Anyone want to venture to guess the grade? Here he is again, just for sport:

Thanks… that would be a little disappointing but we’ll see. I’ll post the “big reveal” in a month when I get it back.

Some call that a "tilt". Some call it a "skew". A slight tilt like you have on Bench might not hurt you very much. I've seen a lot of PSA 8's with a slight tilt.

Assuming no creases or wrinkles... I think your Bench would surely get a "6" in the "good old days".

But a this point in time, I wouldn't even submit the card, as they'll probably give it a 4 or 5. Perhaps this is PSA's over-reaction to the massive alteration revelations. Or maybe it's tied to their new management. Regardless, it's definitely happening and they are currently grading 1 -2 points tougher than just a couple years ago.

So, I just got my notice that this Bench is graded (wow, fast!) and is on his way back… pleasantly surprised to say that he received a grade of 7

Honestly, better than I had even hoped for. I worried that the “tilt” or diamond cut, etc would knock it down too much.

Glad I submitted.

Thx again for the advice and tips

Jeff
