PSA ridiculous price increas no longer wants to grade anything bigger than a tall boy

[BeanTown]

Maybe a new or existing TPG can get all these nitche or different size cards and be the new go to! Let PSA concentrate on other items. I sent off my currency to a grading company (PCGS) who grades and specializes on currency. Can’t wait for some of them to get out of PSA and other holders they are in.

Raulus- I sincerely hope the “theory” you mention, is greeted with the same amount of skepticism as the Flat Earth theory. It makes the same amount of sense. Trent King

You’re probably right.

Most of the jumbo pieces tend to be oddball stuff with pretty thin demand. So it’s always going to be a function of how much a few people are willing to pay. And it’s hard to imagine it will move just because grading fees are exhorbitant.

At the same time, for some pieces, the option to just pick it up raw and get it graded yourself is a lot more expensive now, so maybe if you need a key set registry piece, maybe you’re willing to pay a little bit more for an already graded piece simply because it’s more economical.
