my point was "is a very high value" card treated the same as a $2 card when it's sent to be graded?

My understanding was that all cards are treated equally. Obviously this isn't the case.

All things equal I would want more experienced graders looking at higher end cards, no?

As I like to say, every single public company sued for fraudulent financial statements had an auditor sign off on them.

Of course that’s not the case. It would be foolish to treat them equally and it’s foolish to expect them to receive absolute equal treatment. It’s like the old Parcells saying that all players will be treated fairly doesn’t mean they’ll be treated equally. Same thing but with cards. Some are more important than others.

Once a card gets into a PSA, SGC, BVG, etc. holder, most don't give a damn. That's a well-known fact.

Indeed. The cleansing effect of the flip and slab. So ironic given the original impetus behind TPG.

Ignoring what a card looks like and buying it only for the number on the slab.
